Consistent school attendance is essential for student success! When students attend school regularly, they build strong learning habits, stay engaged with their classmates, and make steady academic progress. Every day in the classroom is an opportunity for growth, collaboration, and new experiences that can’t be replaced.
We understand that occasional absences happen, but missing school too often can make it harder for students to catch up and stay on track. Let’s work together to ensure our students are present, prepared, and ready to learn each day. Thank you for your support in making attendance a priority!
Our 4th and 5th graders are excited to present their music performance on April 4th at 2:00 PM! This special performance is inspired by the book Ada’s Violin and showcases their hard work and creativity. We look forward to seeing you there!
