The Eagle's Press
Week of Oct 19
Attendance
When we think about attendance, we usually picture whole days missed. But missing just the first 15–20 minutes of first period or checking out early once a week adds up quickly. It can equate to over two full weeks of lost learning over the course of a school year.
Parents, try these tips:
Whenever possible, schedule doctor or dental appointments after school hours or toward the end of the day.
If your teen has a morning appointment, encourage them to return for the remainder of the school day.
Every period matters for staying on track toward graduation!
Engage in a discussion with our attendance staff, Mr. Catlett mecatlett@cps.edu, or Ms. Williams, sdwilliams1@cps.edu if you have questions about your student's attendance.
