School attendance is important to student growth, please remember how quickly absences add up.
Every school day counts and everyone can make a difference!

should not have more than 1 absence for every 25 days of school.
Talk to your child about the importance of coming to school!
Make a healthy choice!
We will have a daily snack time to support our students' minds and bodies. Snacks can be brought from home; however, we are asking students bring only "healthy" snacks, and please not to share anything with others as a health precaution. Donations of snacks for the entire class at the beginning of each month are greatly appreciated. Please only bring individually packaged snacks.
Healthy snack suggestions include:
- Pretzels
- Cheese sticks
- Fruit snacks
- Popcorn
- Animal crackers
- Chocolate chip granola bar
- Goldfish
Please remember that gum and candy are never allowed at school or our afterschool program. Additionally, hot chips (Takis, Hot Cheetos, etc.) are proven to cause stomach issues. We would like to promote healthy snacks for our community. We also want to keep our campus looking clean and beautiful; gum can get caught on people’s shoes, furniture, and playground equipment. We want to avoid these sticky situations at Bloom.
