Attendance Incentives:

We have officially kicked off our attendance incentives for the 24-25 SY!

Shout-out to Ms. Martinez for taking charge of the Attendance Incentive Cart! Let’s make sure to bring our students to school every day and on time so they can earn the chance to pick something special from the cart. Thanks, Ms. Martinez, for helping keep our students motivated!

Dear Families,

Welcome back from the holidays! We hope everyone had a relaxing and enjoyable break, and we’re excited to begin the new year together.

As we start this new semester, we would like to take a moment to emphasize the importance of regular school attendance for all students. Consistent attendance plays a key role in your child’s academic success, and we encourage all families to ensure that their children are present and ready to engage in their learning each day.

Please note that we will be accepting only three handwritten excuse notes per semester for any student’s absence. After this limit is reached, we will require proper documentation (such as a doctor's note or other formal records) to excuse any further absences.

Thank you for your cooperation, and we look forward to working together for a successful second half of the school year.
