I want to take a
moment to celebrate the incredible progress we are making with student
attendance. Our MICIP attendance goal is to decrease our total number of
student absences by 10% over three years, moving from 8,406 absences in the
2023-24 school year to 7,566 absences or fewer by 2027.
I am excited to share
that we are currently exceeding our goal. At this point in the year, we have
reduced total absences to 5,674.
This growth is not
accidental. It is the result of your consistency, relationship-building,
communication with families, and commitment to creating classrooms where
students want to be each day. Every phone call, attendance conversation,
morning greeting, and effort to engage students matters. However, because this
is a three-year goal, it is important that we maintain this progress and
continue building on the systems and practices that are helping us succeed.
As we head into the final four weeks of school, we must continue holding families accountable and reinforcing the importance of students being present every day through the end of the school year.
