It's National School Backpack Awareness Day! 🎒

Choosing the right backpack and wearing it correctly can go a long way toward keeping students comfortable and injury-free. Here are a few things to keep in mind:

✅ Use both strapssingle-shoulder carrying puts uneven strain on the body
✅ Keep the total load to 10-15% of your child's body weight
✅ Pack heavier items closest to the back
✅ Straps should be snug but not too tight
✅ Regularly remove items that do not need to be there

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! 🤝
