Attendance Meetings

We invite all families to join us for these upcoming community meetings focused on the importance of student attendance and how it supports academic success, graduation, and future opportunities.

During each meeting, families will:

• Learn why regular attendance matters at every grade level

• Receive step-by-step instructions on how to use PowerSchool to view your child’s attendance, monitor absences and tardies and stay informed and engaged in your student’s progress.

• Explore community resources available to support students and families, including help with transportation, health needs, and other barriers that may affect attendance

🕡 All meetings are from 6:30–7:30 PM
