Klatts Ghoolish Weekly Update

Klatt was just awarded for

'most highly attended, Title 1 School, with 90% attendance for the month of September.

That's a huge deal!!!!

Education has been deemed the great equalizer.

Access to education being the predominant factor in overcoming differences in economic privileges later in life. Students who are chronically absent, meaning missing 15 or more within the school year will prevent children from reaching learning milestones, putting them at risk of falling behind their peers, thus leaving them unable to compete academically with peers later in their academic careers.

Irregular attendance has also been found to be a predictor of student drop out rate and test scores.

Our children's success is determined by our dedication to get our children to school and Klatt is making that happen.

School is where they belong!!!

Its is our relationship with local businesses in the area, that allows our functions to have that extra layer or 'pizzaz'. Starbucks, one of our School Business Partnerships, was more than generous. They have donated fun colorful cups and delicious coffee to be raffled at our event. Thank you Starbucks!!!

1. Weapons of any kind are not permitted.

2. Eye and face masks ARE NOT acceptable (vision can not be impaired for safety reasons).

3. Please make sure that your child's costume does not have anything hanging below the ankle or past the wrists. (Tripping and/or getting materials caught is a major concern).

4. Props (if any) must be manageable, particularly if students ride a bus.

****Remember that students scheduled for Physical Education on the 31st will still have class. Costumes for those students, therefore, should be selected with safety and maneuverability in mind.****

These pieces will be cleaned and sent to the women's shelter next week. Please make sure to collect them if they look familiar.
