Attendance MATTERS!!! Did you know that students should miss no more than 9 days of school each year to maintain engagement and success? Frequent absences can indicate various challenges, including academic struggles or bullying. By 8th grade, attendance is a strong predictor of graduation rates.

As parents and educators, we can take action:
Reach out to our school counselor, Ms. CC, at cwhite@tanj.org
Maintain consistent routines to support learning and well-being.
Let’s collaborate to foster an environment where our students can thrive!
