Strong attendance is essential for student success—every day counts! Our school-wide goal is to maintain at least 95% average daily attendance each month. To reach this, students should miss no more than two days of school per month.

If your child will be absent, please be sure to contact the school office to let us know.

We are excited to share that during the first week of school, we reached 98% average daily attendance—a fantastic start! Thank you for your support in helping students be here, on time, and ready to learn each day.
