Attendance Matters
Countless studies prove It is vitally important that children attend school daily. Students that are chronically absent are at a greater risk of falling behind in reading and math and experience lower marks than their peers.
What is chronic absenteeism? When a student misses 15 or more days in a single school year.
When students miss two days of class each month, they lose 10% of the total school year. With each absence, they fall further behind their peers, specifically in regards to literacy.
By third grade, learning to read becomes reading to learn. It is important to note that students who read at grade level by the end of third grade are three to four times more likely to graduate high school and pursue post-graduate education.
Please help us and help them by sending them to school daily. Please also see the school calendar for the rest of this year to plan family vacations accordingly.
We love our Bulldogs and want them to succeed in everything they do. Let's start them off with a firm foundation to become lifelong learners.
