Attendance Matters

 

You received an email from Jessica Sandner announcing NHA’s attendance campaign called Strive for 5. In addition, we will continue our own attendance initiatives. The first step is to be prepared for Classroom Perfect Attendance and 94% Daily Attendance on the first day of school. You can read about all our attendance initiatives HERE. 

Lastly, it is important that you engage your families by providing weekly updates in your classroom newsletters. Please feel free to create an “attendance” section where you highlight your classroom progress. For example, you could say, “Families, we had no tardies, absences, nor early dismissals for two days this week earning us the “H” and “E” from the word “HERE.” Once we spell the complete word, students will earn a celebration. Please help us achieve this goal by avoiding absences, tardies and early dismissals when possible. Thank you for your partnership.”

I will be communicating all our attendance initiatives to families in my September 1^st Sunday Night Email.
