Attendance Goals
We continue to focusing on improved attendance across the building by celebrating the grade level with the highest attendance. We are partnering with families to encourage our students to “Strive for Five.” Coming to school five days a week, on time and staying the whole day.
Parents can help us with our attendance goal by communicating with the office to excuse absences and making sure that you walk your students all the way into the school to sign in if you are tardy to school. Students should never be dropped off at school late without being accompanied inside by a parent or guardian. If you need support with getting your child to school please reach out the main office.
PTA Walk-a-Thon Event
Our Ilalko PTA Walkathon is coming up soon! Please return the yellow permission slips ASAP so that your child can walk to the Riverside track across the street on April 26th. Please continue to collect money in the envelopes and return them to school April 26th. The online donation link is https://ilalko-walkathon-2024.cheddarup.com. We encourage each student to raise at least $25.
