“Be Present, Be Powerful!
Good Habits = Great Attendance = Success at School!
As we kick off the new year, it’s the perfect time to build strong routines at home that set students up for success! Here are 3 simple habits that can make a BIG difference:
📅 Set a consistent bedtime & morning routine
A good night’s sleep and a calm morning help students feel ready to learn.
🎒 Prep the night before
Pack backpacks, lay out clothes, and talk about what tomorrow will bring!
⏰ Prioritize daily attendance
Every school day counts. When students show up, they grow—socially, emotionally, and academically!
Let’s work together to help every student show up ready to shine ✨
