✨ Attendance Matters – And So Do You! ✨
Every day in school makes a difference. Did you know?
📌 A student is considered chronically absent if they miss 10% or more of the school year – that’s just 2 days a month. Even excused absences add up and can impact learning.
🍂 October is the perfect time for a fresh start! Let’s make this month our strongest one yet for attendance. Building good habits now helps students finish the semester strong.
💡 What families can do:
✔️ Make school attendance a priority – remember our district motto: Strive for 5: Every Day Counts! (Miss no more than 5 days all year).
✔️ Send a written parent/guardian note whenever your child is absent so we can keep records accurate and provide support.
✔️ Reach out if challenges come up – we are here to help.
When your student is here, they are learning, growing, and building their future. Let’s work together, because Every Day Counts! 🌟

22 young women from several different programs attended the SHEDIG Operating Engineers Event in Logan, Ohio, hosted by the Ohio Operating Engineers Apprenticeship Program and IUOE Local 18.
The day started with stories from instructors and female apprentices about their journeys in the trades. Then our students had the chance to hop in the driver’s seat and operate heavy equipment, digging, and moving dirt while learning about the skills needed for these in-demand careers.
Students were provided lunch, t-shirts, photos and information about the Operating Engineers Local 18 Apprenticeship & Training Program, which offers union wages, benefits, and long-term career opportunities.
Local 18’s motto sums it up best: “Together We Train – Together We Gain.”
