Attendance! Engaging Parents, Students and Staff in Your Attendance Campaign
Educators know the value of attendance but far too many parents and students do not. This kit will help you engage parents and students to improve attendance.
Research shows that there is a statistically significant correlation between poor attendance and low grades.
The idea that attendance is important seems so easy but it is lost on so many—you must show up to learn! It is as plain and simple as that. Students who miss days or portions of class due to tardiness can miss up to a year of school by the time they reach 12th grade. It’s no wonder that the students who frequently miss school due to doctor/dentist appointments, family vacations or just to have a rest day end up being the same students that need more discipline, remediation and are at the greatest risk of dropping out.
Take a giant leap toward improving student achievement in your school with over 250 pages of resources (in English and Spanish) that provide you with attendance strategies and campaigns with varying themes that you can use year after year. There is nothing more important to student success than having parents involved in making sure students are in class, on time and ready to learn every day!
Appropriate for both Elementary and Secondary levels, this kit contains all of these helpful components:
- Three 10-minute, enhanced PowerPoint presentations on why attendance matters, professionally narrated for elementary and secondary parents and staff. Each video comes with a leader's guide, script and handouts.
