Attendance Matters
Bragging rights to Jackson. 2nd six week improvement from this time last year! We are on the right track. Let's finish the fourth nine weeks STRONG and hit our 95% goal weekly for the remainder of the school year!
Jackson believes that everyday is an opportunity for our students to grow — not just academically, but socially and emotionally as well. Attendance is more than being present in a seat. It’s about being present for learning, friendships, confidence-building, and meaningful experiences that shape the whole child.
Campus Goal: 95%
When students attend school consistently:
📚 Academic Growth Strengthens
Each lesson builds on the one before it. Daily attendance helps students stay on track, deepen their understanding, and feel successful in their learning.
💛 Social-Emotional Skills Develop
School is where students practice teamwork, empathy, communication, and problem-solving. Being present allows them to build friendships, develop resilience, and feel connected to a caring community.
🌟 Confidence Increases
When students attend regularly, they feel prepared, included, and confident. They experience routines, celebrations, and small wins that build self-esteem.
We understand that illnesses and unexpected events happen. When they do, please communicate with us so we can support your child. Our goal is partnership — working together to ensure your child feels safe, supported, and excited to come to school each day.
Strong attendance helps us align academic success with social-emotional growth. When students are here, they thrive.
We only have 27 voices so far. Help us reach our goal! 98 away!
