Attendance Gratitude
Thanks for being patient and understanding the need for attendance to begin being submitted in TAC at 9:45 with the deadline for submission being at 10:15 daily. The state audits attendance during this range of time. If we are audited and attendance submission occurs outside of this window, we loose funding. Below is the sample of what it would have looked like for our campus on a random sampling of days if an audit occurred.

The office team is shouting it out to you! We have made significant progress with being at nearly 100% daily in submitting our attendance. Now that we know we need it to be specifically submitted during that 30 minute window of time, we got this!
Shout Out Kindess
Fall in Love with Gratitude
As we move into this season of giving thanks, join us in taking just a moment each day to reflect and give thanks for a small moment in your classroom. I wonder how much we miss each day in the hustle and bustle of school life. I wonder what would happen if we incorporated 5 minutes of reflection at the conclusion of each day and wrote down just one small moment we are grateful for seeing those small successes with our students. Will you consider joining us as we fill our hearts with gratitude and share those small moments with your teams and other? It may just be that dose of positivity someone needs to make it through the day and into the next.
