STUDENT ATTENDANCE

We sent home informational letters to families about their child's attendance. If the NYC DOE has flagged your child's attendance for this school year as being Chronically Absent, Potentially Chronically Absent, or At Risk for being Chronically Absent, you should have received a letter informing you of their absences. The letter is solely informational and with the hopes that our students attend school regularly when they are in good health.

If your child has COVID-19 and completes work during their 5-day quarantine, we can code them in a special way where the absence does not contribute to being "chronically absent". Again, work has to be completed and submitted to their teacher for this to apply. Please message your child's teacher and notify the attendance aide by choosing option 4 when calling the school.

We understand that many illnesses were going around, and many of our students were legitimately ill. However, we want everyone to be aware of your child's attendance record, which can be found by logging into your NYC SCHOOLS ACCOUNT , and ask that you be conscientious when arriving late to school (past 8:15 AM), planning vacations, and keeping your children out for reasons other than illness. Elementary School Attendance can help predict a student's performance in high school and whether they stay in school as they age. We want to maximize your child's school time and minimize missed instructional time. There are many things to learn while in school, including academics, learning with and from peers & teachers, as well as interacting and socializing with other students.

It is our hope that you and your family have a wonderful mid-winter recess and time is spent smiling, laughing, and loving one another! Happy Valentine' Day and President's Week.
