• By 6th grade, absenteeism is one of three signs that a student may drop out of high school.
  
• By 9th grade, attendance is a better predictor of graduation rates than 8th grade test scores.

• Talk about the importance of showing up to school every day.

• Help your children maintain daily routines, such as finishing homework and getting a good night’s sleep.
• Try not to schedule dental and non-urgent related medical appointments during the school day.
• Keep your student healthy, and if you are concerned about Covid-19, call your school for advice.
• If your children must stay home because they are sick, make sure they have asked teachers for resources and materials to make up for the missed learning time in the classroom.

Thank you to everyone for continuing to help keep all of our students safe on their way to and home from school. Just as a reminder to continue to follow all of the parking lot safety measures to ensure all of our students and families are safe.

Crosswalk safety flags are now available at Foxworthy and New Jersey! Grab one of the flags and make eye contact with all four vehicles before crossing. Help us by carrying flags back from a full bucket to replenish an empty bucket.

Sponsors are needed to support this effort with more flags and flag locations. Your business name and number can be printed on the flag, so it's free advertising for your business! Please email Cambrian Education Foundation for more info: cambriancef@gmail.com.

Early bird special ends today on this year's yearbook!
