Sometimes the smallest moments of connection give students a reason to keep showing up & can make a BIG difference.
Attendance is about more than being in a seat. It's about connection, belonging & knowing that your presence matters.
Every student deserves to know they are missed when they're gone and valued when they're here.

Absences Add Up
Did you know? Missing just two days of school each month can add up to chronic absence over the course of a school year.
Every absence, excused or unexcused, means time away from learning, relationships and the routines that help students succeed.
The good news? It’s never too late to build stronger attendance habits. If getting to school regularly is becoming difficult, reach out to your school. We’re here to help!

Good morning, Whitehead families! The internet is down district wide, preventing us from taking attendance. If you receive a phone call stating your child was absent, please disregard unless they are truly absent! Thank you!
