📚 **Every Day Matters at MPCSD!** 🐾

At MPCSD, our mission is **to empower students to achieve without limits**—and that starts with being at school every day.

Regular attendance helps students build relationships, stay engaged in learning, and reach their full potential. This year, our district is committed to reducing chronic absenteeism, with a goal of **10% or fewer students being chronically absent by the end of the 2026–2027 school year.**

Families, schools, and our community all play an important role. Thank you for partnering with us to help every student show up, learn, and thrive. ❤️💛
