📅 September is Attendance Awareness Month!

Building strong attendance takes all of us. 💙
Families can help create consistent routines at home, schools can provide a welcoming and supportive environment, and together we can help remove barriers that may make getting to school difficult.

This September, let’s work together to help every student show up, stay connected and succeed.

Because when we come together to support our students, every day counts.
