Being Here Matters

Missing school—even part of a day—means missing important lessons, time with friends, and opportunities to connect with teachers. Your presence matters, and we want to see you succeed!

Every Day Counts!

Missing just 2 days a month adds up to nearly a month of school each year—so every day really matters! We love seeing your student here and supporting their growth and success.

Academic Impact

Research shows that regular attendance is one of the strongest predictors of on-time graduation. The good news? It’s never too late! When students improve their attendance, they improve their academic prospects and their chances of graduating. Being present every day helps your student stay on track and build a foundation for long-term success!

Bright Futures

Regular attendance is one of the strongest predictors of academic success and on-time graduation. Every day at school gives your student the opportunity to stay engaged, build important skills, and set themselves up to thrive academically and beyond.

Stay Healthy

If your student isn’t feeling well, give yourself and your family time to recover—rest is important! The Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment’s How Sick is Too Sick guide can help you decide when to keep your child home. We want our students to feel supported, so if we can help in any way, please give us a call!
