Attendance Initiative Program
We are happy to announce that we are starting an Attendance Initiative Program for our school. We are setting a goal to have better attendance for the remainder of the year. Even with the global pandemic we are in, we want to make education an important part of our student’s daily habits.
Attendance is an essential component to a student’s academic success. Missing 10 % of school can make it harder for students to:
Gain math and reading skills
Build relationships
Develop good attendance habits.
The following are the rewards that students can earn:
Every month the class with the highest attendance percentage in their grade level receives the Attendance Trophy and extra recess. The class with the highest percentage of the entire school receives the largest trophy and extra recess.
Each student who receives perfect attendance each month will receive a prize.
Students that have perfect attendance for the term will receive a pizza party and games/movie day.
Students that have improved their attendance from last month will receive a prize
