Missing a few days here and there doesn't seem like a big deal, but as you can see, a few school absences add up to a lot of missed instruction! Regular attendance is vital for student success. Research shows that students with chronic absenteeism are less likely to read proficiently by third grade, achieve in middle school, or graduate from high school.
Help your child succeed academically by talking with them about the importance of school. Establish morning and evening routines making bedtime and mornings less stressful and schedule non-essential appointments and vacations outside of the school day.
