The #1 School Success Factor: ATTENDANCE
Regular Attendance is crucial for success in elementary school.
Absences add up: Even if your child misses just a few days here and there, his/her grades are likely to suffer. Please try to have your children at school as much as possible, and if they need to be absent, please check with the school for any makeup work or lessons.
Elementary attendance affects reading: Frequent absences in elementary school can significantly impact your student's reading development.
Attendance problems can negatively impact a child's future: Attendance problems become a leading indicator that a student will drop out of high school.
Social growth is affected by attendance: Students interact and grow emotionally and socially each day at school when surrounded by their peers. They learn to make friends, build relationships with children and adults outside their family and poor attendance can highly impact their ability to develop to their full potential.
