🌟 Important Notice for Parents! 🌟
As we step into the beautiful season of spring 🌸 , we want to draw attention to a common trend: attendance tends to decline during this time. It's crucial to address this issue as your child's consistent attendance remains the focus, especially as they approach important assessments and exams.
How can you help?
👨👩👧👦 Encourage your child to attend school every day, unless they are genuinely unwell.
⏰ Ensure your child arrives at school on time to make the most of each learning opportunity.
📞 Communicate with us promptly if your child is unable to attend school due to illness or other reasons.
We want to partner with you to improve attendance and continue the year strong! #attendancematters

Dr. Dail and Makenzi Borton, senior at Sterling High School, attended the Illinois State University Education Job Fair to recruit future teachers for our openings. Who better to help recruit future teachers than a current SHS senior going into education and attending Illinois State in the Fall? #jointheSPSfamily
