Parents and Guardians,

We know how important family time, vacations, and appointments are—and we want to support you in planning ahead as much as possible!

To help reduce absences and keep our students on track, we’ve created a School Planning Guide. It includes key dates like breaks and holidays—making it easier to schedule trips or appointments around school time.

We understand that life happens, and some absences are unavoidable. But when students are here consistently, they're confident, stay on track, and have a better chance to succeed—and that's what we all want!

Thank you for partnering with us to make every day count!
