Attendance is vital for every child every day as lifelong habits are established in the early school years and contribute to student success throughout their school career and beyond. The best way to keep up with your student's curriculum pacing is to ensure they are in class daily and engaging with peers and their teachers.
When students are absent, they miss participating in discovery, student discourse, and the friendships made inside and outside the classroom through play and collaborative learning. Knowledge and understanding are more than being able to complete a worksheet; it is connecting new knowledge with concepts known previously to construct new meaning and sharing explanations of what is learned. Our teachers want to celebrate students and peers attending school in person and gaining knowledge.
Please be reminded that our upcoming vacation days for the remainder of the year are the following and please try and schedule appointments on non-school days and after school.
Monday, May 29, 2023 - Non-School Day/Holiday
Tuesday, June 6, 2023 - Last Day of School (Summer Break: June 7, 2023 - August 9, 2023)
Parents/guardians looking to take their student(s) out on short-term independent study for personal family business (not quarantined) must complete the online form. Paper forms will no longer be available at the office. As a reminder, students may use short-term independent study when they will be gone for a planned absence of a minimum of three (3) days and a maximum of 14 days. If a student takes multiple independent studies, they are limited to a combined total of 14 days each school year. Parents requesting short-term independent study will still need to make their request with at least 5-days’ notice before taking your student(s) out of school to ensure proper notification to their teacher(s) and providing of schoolwork. Thank you.
