🌟 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
Wednesday is a PLC Early Dismissal. Jefferson and Franklin dismissal is 2:05 (preschool normal dismissal time 2:15). Lincoln and Washington dismissal is 1:55. CMS dismissal is 2:00. SHS dismissal is 1:55.
SHS freshmen work with Dr. Alonzo Kelly today at the Student Leadership Summit. Our biggest takeaway we want to share our Warrior family: "Dead last is better than quitting the race. Don't listen to those who quit or never even joined the race." #LeadershipSummit #DrKelly #GoWarriors
Thank you to Lutheran Social Services of Illinois for visiting SHS today and spreading awareness about local mental health services and resources. #LSSI #mentalhealthmatters
