Dear Parents and Guardians,
I hope this message finds you well. As we edge closer to the end of this academic year, I want to take a moment to emphasize something that has a profound impact on your child’s success—consistent school attendance.
Every day that your child is present in school is a day filled with learning, and growth. Research and experience show that students who attend school regularly are more likely to excel academically, and develop the discipline needed for lifelong success. Even occasional absences can add up, leading to missed lessons that are difficult to fully recover.
I understand that illnesses and family emergencies happen, and we will always support our students through those situations. However, I encourage you to prioritize attendance whenever possible and to reach out if there are challenges keeping your child from coming to school. We are here to partner with you in ensuring that every student has the best possible foundation for success.
Thank you for your dedication and support. Together, we can empower our students to reach their full potential—one school day at a time.
With gratitude,
Mrs. Mc
