Average Daily Attendance for SGE
Last Week's ADA for SGE: 93.69%
ADA stands for Average Daily Attendance and is defined as the total days of student attendance divided by the total days of instruction. Check out SGE's ADA trends in the chart above.
"98 IS Great!" We'll celebrate as a campus when we hit a week with 98% attendance!
We recognize that illnesses and events take place that necesitate absences, however, we do encourage every student to be in school every day he/she is able. Let's work for 98%!
January is School Board Recognition Month!
January is School Board Recognition month!
Governor Greg Abbott wrote, "Ensuring a quality education is the work of many, and school boards are a vital component of this success. These local leaders use their time, energy, and knowledge to set and review budgets; oversee the management of Texas' public and charter schools; and ensure that students receive an exemplary education. School board members play an integral role in promoting a lifelong love of learning in the next generation by collaborating with teachers, parents, and community members. They will continue to play a key role as we strive for educational excellence in the Lone Star State."
Please join us in showing appreciation for our BCISD board members:
Earl Foster - President
Angela Moore - Vice President
Mark Kincaid - Secretary
Katy Duke - Trustee
David Bennett - Trustee
