Attendance is KeyDid you know that consistency with

your childs attendance is key to his/her education? According to an ar-

ticle published at www.newamerica.net, One of the biggest myths affect-

ing the education of young children

is the mistaken belief that kindergar-ten or preschool is just an add-on that it doesnt really matter that

much if children skip a bunch of days or arrives perpetually late.

But, poor attendance and tardiness are real issues even for youngchildren and can hamper their ability to learn.

We ask that your children please be at school by 9 a.m.,at the latest. Participating in all of the educational components

of the day will help your child reap long-term benets. If yourchild is going to be absent or la te, please call to let us know.

We appreciate your cooperation!
