It is never too soon to start thinking about good school attendance.
There are only 180 days in the school year, and every one of these days matter!
Make school attendance a priority:
• Talk about the importance of showing up to school everyday, make that the expectation.
• Help your child maintain daily routines, such as finishing homework and getting a good night’s sleep.
• Don’t let your child stay home unless contagious. Keep in mind complaints of a stomach ache or headache can be a sign of anxiety and not a reason to stay home.
• If your child seems anxious about going to school, talk to teachers, school
counselors, or other parents for advice on how to increase comfort level and excitement about learning.
• Develop back-up plans for getting to school if something comes up. Call on a family member, a neighbor, or another parent.
• Avoid medical appointments and extended trips when school is in session.
• Stay on top of academic progress and seek help from teachers if necessary.
• Encourage meaningful after school activities, including sports and clubs.
• Know the school’s attendance policy.
• Talk to teachers if you notice sudden changes in behavior.
• Check on your child’s attendance to be sure absences are not piling up.
