September is Attendance Awareness Month. A great reminder that every school day matters! 💯
Strong attendance helps students stay connected to their learning, classmates, teachers, and school community.
Families can help build strong attendance habits by establishing consistent morning and bedtime routines, scheduling appointments outside the school day when possible, planning ahead for transportation, and communicating with the school when challenges arise.
Thank you for partnering with us to help students be at school, on time, and ready to learn! 🤝
