Did you know? Missing 10% of school days–just 2 days per month–means a student is considered chronically absent.

September is Attendance Awareness Month, a reminder that being in class every day matters. When students are present, they're more likely to stay on track, achieve their goals, and succeed beyond the classroom. 🌟

Let's work together to make every day count! ❤️💛
