Partner with families. Attendance must be the shared responsibility of students, families and the school. Communicate with families on a regular and ongoing basis. Develop a school wide system of incentives and sanctions. Make the goal of improving attendance a classroom, small learning community, and whole school goal.
Family Let children know that school is important.
Show them that you are interested in their activities. Communicate regularly with school staff. Develop a daily schedule. Children do best with planned routines. Make sure children get to bed and get enough sleep so that they wake up in time to get to school on time and ready to learn.
