Reading and mathematics skills are the foundational building blocks for all other areas of learning, including science, social studies, and even technical fields. By building a strong foundation in these areas, students will successfully grasp more advanced, complex concepts.

Help your student build a strong foundation for success, spend 20 minutes each evening practicing math fact fluency and reading with your student. Learn more and access district-provided online resources at www.pylusd.org/buildingblocks.

When students miss school, not only do they miss important face-to-face instruction, but they miss the daily social interaction with their peers which benefits their overall health and well-being. While homework can be made up, there is no replacement for the collaboration and interaction that takes place within the classroom.

Students who miss ten percent or more of school, or just two school days a month, are considered chronically absent as defined by the state of California. Chronic absenteeism, whether caused by excused or unexcused absences, may be an early warning sign of poor academic outcomes and may put students at risk of dropping out of school.

Finally, when students fall behind as a result of absences, they require additional support through district programs and services. To complicate matters more, a large majority of the school district’s funding to offer these programs and services is based on the average daily attendance of students.

Please help us set your students up for success by assuring they come to school every day unless they are sick. When students are sick, families should contact their school to report the absence.

Every Day Counts when it comes to attendance and ensuring students have the advantage of an outstanding education. Learn more at www.pylusd.org/everydaycounts.

Cuando los estudiantes faltan a la escuela, no solo pierden una importante instrucción presencial, sino que también pierden la interacción social diaria con sus compañeros, lo que beneficia su salud y bienestar general. Si bien la tarea se puede recuperar, no hay un sustituto para la colaboración y la interacción que tienen lugar dentro del salón de clases.

Los estudiantes que faltan al diez por ciento o más a la escuela, o sólo dos días escolares al mes, se consideran ausentes crónicos según lo define el estado de California. El ausentismo crónico, ya sea causado por ausencias justificadas o injustificadas, puede ser una señal temprana de advertencia de malos resultados académicos y puede poner a los estudiantes en riesgo de abandonar la escuela.

Finalmente, cuando los estudiantes se atrasan como resultado de ausencias, ellos requieren apoyo adicional a través de programas y servicios del distrito. Para complicar aún más las cosas, una gran mayoría de los fondos del distrito escolar para ofrecer estos programas y servicios se basa en la asistencia diaria promedio de los estudiantes.

Por favor. ayúdenos a preparar a sus estudiantes para el éxito asegurándose de que vengan a la escuela todos los días a menos que estén enfermos. Cuando los estudiantes están enfermos, las familias deben comunicarse con su escuela para informar la ausencia.

Cada Día Cuenta cuando se trata de asistencia escolar y de garantizar que los estudiantes tengan la ventaja de una educación excepcional. Obtenga más información en www.pylusd.org/everydaycounts.
