Student Attendance
Encouraging regular school attendance is one of the most powerful ways you can prepare your child for success - both in school and in life. Making school attendance a priority helps your child get better grades, develops healthy life skills, encourages positive behaviors, and gives them a much higher chance of academic success.
Click on the 'Attend Today Succeed Tomorrow' picture for the Warren City School District's Attendance information.
Our Attendance Percentages for the month of October were:
93% for PK-2
94% for 3-5
91% for 6-8
If you have questions about our attendance policy or concerns about your child's attendance, please contact our School-Community Liaisons: Ms. Johnson for K-3 and Ms. Freeman for 4-8.

The Student's Guide to Positive Behavior was created to establish and maintain a safe environment for all students and school personnel. The guide sets forth the expected behaviors for students and provides additional useful information about the general operations of our schools and district. It will take the collective efforts of students, parents, teachers, administrators, and our community to create a successful learning environment where all students can excel. Parents are asked to review the Student's Guide for Positive Behavior with their children. Students are expected to conduct themselves consistent with the expectations of our WARREN Acronym and the Student's Guide to Positive Behavior.
