R-PEL Parent Communication 9-15-24

Families,

Another great week in Rocket City! Fall sports, activities and routines are in full swing.

I know that families are juggling a lot of things at once. With that said, families, thank you for your continued faith, trust and support of your child's school. It means a lot to all of us. We love your kids!

Have a great week!

Please try to not call after 3:00 to change your pick up plans. This is a very busy time of the day in the office and the classroom. Classrooms are wrapping up activities and putting closure on the day. We want to protect this valuable time.

Did you know...? Why Daily Attendance Matters:

1. Missed Lessons = Falling Behind: Even one day can mean missing critical instructions and activities, making it harder for your child to catch up.

2. Impact on Future Success: Consistent attendance is a strong predictor of academic achievement and future opportunities.

3. Building Resilience: Regular attendance teaches your child the value of perseverance and responsibility—essential skills for success in life.

4. Stronger Friendships: Daily presence helps your child develop and sustain friendships, which are crucial for emotional and social development.

5. Healthy Routine: Attending school every day establishes a stable routine, promoting better mental and physical health.

Who to contact if your child doesn't want to come to school: 231-744-4777 ext 2000.
