Every school day counts! Missing a day here and there may not seem like a big deal, but those absences can quickly add upβand have a real impact on a studentβs learning.
As our graphic shows, missing just 2 days a month can mean missing 20 days of school in a year. At 4 days a month, that number doubles to 40 days.
Regular attendance helps students stay connected to their teachers, classmates, lessons, and school community. π
Letβs work together to make every school day count and help our Blazers build strong attendance habits for a successful school year!
Be here. Be ready. Be #BooneProud. π©΅π€
