Click here to view our school's Master Calendar
We love to see our students at school, excited to see their peers and eager to learn! Attendance is a strong predictor of how well students do in school beginning from Kindergarten all the way through 12th grade; this is strongly related to whether they graduate on-time; it greatly impacts what resources the school can get, including teachers, supplies, technology, and student assistance. Our PSA Counselor supports students' academic, social-emotional, and career development by improving student attendance. Thank you parents and families for your support in this journey!
