Did you know? Absenteeism in the first month of school can predict poor attendance throughout the school year. Half the students who miss 2-4 days in September go on to miss nearly a month of school. Make school #AttendanceEveryDay a priority in your family!

Tomorrow, Friday, September 7 is our first early release day of the year. This year our release time for Friday early release days is 2:05. This is a change from last year.
