✨ 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! 🌟

📣 September is all about attendance!

Every day at school is an opportunity for your child to gain knowledge, build friendships, and reach their potential. Let’s work together to make sure every student is present, engaged, and succeeding!
