When students are in school, they are learning. When students are in school, the school gets money from the state for programs and specialized personnel.

We have several incentives for attendance this year.

• Each week, the classroom in each grade with the highest attendance gets an award and door sign advertising to everybody that they were the winner.
• Each week, the classroom with the highest attendance in the whole school gets Popsicles!
• Each month, the classroom with the highest attendance in the whole school gets Popsicles and a gift card to Chic Fil A! Yum!
• Each month, the classroom with the most improvement in the whole school gets Popsicles and a certificate to McDonald's for a Happy Meal. Oh yeah!
• Each month, the teachers with an average of 93% or higher are entered into a drawing for a gift card. Help your teachers win by bringing your students to school on time!
