Of course they do. Part of their rent is used to pay property taxes owed by the owner of the home or apartment building.
I agree that renters pay property tax via rent.
But what if the rent is paid via section 8?

I remember as a kid having the runs and my mother was still dragging my arse to school.
The only thing that would keep us home was if we had fever. If you said you felt bad, she would take your temp... No temp.. No stay home.

Stop letting them get all the free passes flunk them out of highschool and make the GED essentially free and allow them to grow up faster.
The GED is free. They call it a HiSet these days, but they can attend that program at BRCC for free and get their GED. I think there's a small fee just for the exam itself at the end, but it isn't much.

The solution is more money. Please vote to increase property taxes.

Across Chicago Public Schools, nearly 25,000 high school students — or a quarter of all high schoolers — missed at least 35 days last year, according to CPS data obtained by WBEZ

That’s double the number of students who missed that much school in 2019 — and twice the number of days the state deems troublesome enough to flag a student as chronically absent.
Its got bad everywhere post Covid

I’m sure they’ll turn things around when they graduate and join the work force.
