Chronic Absence Update-23.3%
Goal-19%
Great Job Everyone!!! We have decreased chronic absence by 9 students. Keep up the great work of reaching out to families and celebrating great attendance.
Cycle 4-Attendance Next Steps
Going forward we will begin targeted outreach.
Our goal over the next 6 weeks is to move 10 students from moderate to at risk.
The attendance team will be:
- celebrating students with satisfactory attendance
- reaching out daily to targeted families
- scheduling SART (Student Attendance Review Team) Meetings
Teachers:
- when communicating with families discuss attendance
- reach out to families when students are absent
- celebrate great attendance days
SRI Update-31.4% At or Above Grade Level
SRI Goal-41% At or Above Grade Level
Shout out to Mathis (44.4%) who is above our end of the year goal and is close to meeting our MYB goal.
