Regular attendance and punctuality are essential to student learning and success. The skills that students learn in primary school will help them be successful in middle and high school. A student’s attendance often can predict whether they are likely to graduate high school on time.

In addition, your child learns valuable social skills at school and has the opportunity to develop meaningful relationships with students and staff. Absences can be a sign that a student is losing interest in school, struggling with schoolwork, dealing with a bully or facing a potentially serious difficulty.

Students, parents, teachers and administrators must work together to ensure the continuity of learning. Please let us know how we can support your child and your family in maintaining attendance.
