Attendance
Did you know? If children don't attend school regularly, they miss out on fundamental skills and the chance to build a habit of good attendance that will carry them into careers and college. We want your child to be prepared to be successful in a world that is yet to be fully imagined. Please make every effort to support your child attending school regularly and on time. Thank you for your partnership.
