We are looking forward to your input! Mrs. Hunt
Parents,
At the beginning of the year, I issued a challenge to our students. We are tracking student daily attendance, as well as monthly attendance. At the end of each month, an announcement will be made to celebrate the grades that have the highest attendance in PK-2, 3-5, and 6-8. Each of those grades will receive a small reward. An overall monthly attendance will also be recognized. We have some great and exciting incentives in store for high attendance! This is a year-long project and we need your help! Please consider scheduling appointments in the late afternoon, vacations during times that we are already scheduled to be out, and send your child to school as long as they are not running a fever or experiencing stomach virus symptoms. We want our students to be successful, but, they must attend to achieve! Have a great evening!
Mrs. Hunt
