DID YOU KNOW?
• By 6th grade, absenteeism is one of three signs that a student may drop out of high school.
• By 9th grade, attendance is a better predictor of graduation rates than 8th grade test scores.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
Make school attendance a priority
• Talk about the importance of showing up to school every day.
• Help your children maintain daily routines, such as finishing homework and getting a good night’s sleep.
• Try not to schedule dental and non-Covid-19 related medical appointments during the school day.
• Keep your child healthy, and if you are concerned about Covid-19, call your school for advice.
• If your children must stay home because they are sick or in quarantine, make sure they have asked teachers for resources
and materials to make up for the missed learning time in the classroom.

Tis' the season for coughs and colds. Here a few reminders to keep in mind regarding illness and the school policies.
Please do not send your child to school if they have a fever, have diarrhea or vomiting, have a cough with other symptoms such as a sore throat, or have other symptoms that are covid related.
Due to liability issues the nurse cannot diagnose illnesses or prescribe treatments. The school nurse will administer covid tests within the following time frames: 8:30 to 9:30 and 12:30 - 1:30.
Additionally, we must have a signed consent form from the parent on file before administering a covid test. If you have questions please call 580-723-4582 and ask for Nurse Whitney.
The elementary students are counting down the 12 school days before Christmas Break. Today was "We'll Have a Blue Christmas Without You" Day - wear blue. Tomorrow is "I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas" Day - wear white.
