1. Missed Lessons = Falling Behind: Even one day can mean missing critical instructions and activities, making it harder for your child to catch up.

2. Impact on Future Success: Consistent attendance is a strong predictor of academic achievement and future opportunities.

3. Building Resilience: Regular attendance teaches your child the value of perseverance and responsibility—essential skills for success in life.

4. Stronger Friendships: Daily presence helps your child develop and sustain friendships, which are crucial for emotional and social development.

5. Healthy Routine: Attending school every day establishes a stable routine, promoting better mental and physical health.

If your child will be absent, contact us by phone at 307-856-9443 or text us at 307-206-4327.

On September 9th, 10th, and 11th, 6th grade students have the opportunity to complete the Lifelines Suicide Prevention Course during their social studies core class. In the last several years, we’ve seen a need to teach our students how to look for and address the risk of suicide in themselves and their peers. Students leave the training more equipped to cope with and help those who may struggle with thoughts of suicide, depression, anxiety, or other struggles. Our kids have quite possibly saved lives with the skills they learn from Lifelines. Please look for a PERMISSION SLIP coming home with your student and sign/send it back with them if you would prefer them NOT to participate.

(LIMITED SPACE AVAILABLE)

All 7th graders are required to have a Tdap (adult tetanus) vaccine, unless they have a medical or religious exemption. Please provide a copy to the school.

If your child uses an inhaler or epinephrine, please have one available here at school. Your student may carry their own or keep it in the nurse's office. For questions or more information, please contact Nurse Kenna at kborst@fremont25.org.
