FELICITA FAMILY NEWS

👋 Hello Bobcat Families,

What a welcome these cooler temperatures have been! Students enjoyed getting back outside and playing on playground once again.

This week our 2nd graders enjoyed a fun and educational trip to City Hall where they learned about our local government.

And finally, all grades got to participate in the "Wheel" this week. The Wheel is a rotational schedule for amazing classes such as environmental science, music, robotics/engineering, and art. During that time I get to meet with teachers while they plan how to best support our students. We are so lucky to have this time!

I hope you all had a great weekend!

❤️ Mrs. Higginbotham

Regular student attendance plays a critical role in our collective mission to ensure every student achieves their fullest potential.

Why Attendance Should Be a Top Priority:

1. Academic Achievement: Regular attendance is fundamental to student success. Each school day is a building block in the learning process. Consistent attendance helps students keep up with coursework, understand key concepts, and perform better academically.

2. Social and Emotional Development: School is a place where students develop crucial social skills and emotional resilience. Frequent absences can hinder their ability to form strong relationships with peers and teachers, impacting their overall development.

3. Future Opportunities: Consistent attendance is linked to higher graduation rates and better long-term outcomes, including higher education and career prospects. By prioritizing attendance, we are directly contributing to students' future success.

4. School Culture: Regular attendance fosters a positive school culture and enhances the learning environment for everyone. It creates a sense of community and ensures that all students have equal access to the resources and support they need.
