Attendance Matters, and we’re off to a great start! As we settle into the new school year, remember that every school day counts. Being present and on time gives students the opportunity to learn, build relationships, stay on track, and make the most of every moment in the classroom. Let’s make attendance a priority all year long! Every day. Every student. Every opportunity.
