One of our goals is to partner with you to have a 95% attendance rate as a school. While we have done well this year, we have fallen short the last couple of weeks. Our current attendance rate is 94% and 93% for the week. Attendance rate is directly related to school performance. Let us know how we can help if your child needs support, because we want every opportunity to teach and support your child.
