BES Principal Newsletter
March 10, 2023
Good evening BES Families,
Another round of attendance notifications will be sent out soon. Our third marking period is coming to end on March 24th so please be on the lookout for an email, letter or a phone call from myself if your student has missed 10% of our year so far. Below are some facts about absenteeism as well as a family handout regarding school attendance.
• Missing 10%, or about 2 days each month over the course of a school year, can make it harder to learn to read.
• Students can still fall behind if they miss just 1 or 2 days every few weeks.
• Being late to school may lead to poor attendance.
• Absences and tardiness can affect the whole classroom if the teacher has to slow down learning to help children catch up.
As always, Mrs. Howard's Notes are attached below. We hope you have an awesome weekend and stay safe!
Educationally Yours,
Mrs. Johnson
