Chronic absence is easily masked by school attendance statistics, even when average daily attendance appears relatively high. Even in a school with 95% daily attendance, 30% of the student population could be chronically absent. How is that possible? Find out: http://bit.ly/1oqfID7
Attendance Awareness Month is September, but the campaign to end chronic absence starts now! It’s a bigger problem than you probably think. Learn more about chronic absence and join the Attendance Awareness Campaign today! http://bit.ly/1oqfID7

Attached is information about registering for the ACT. Generally I recommend that students take the ACT in the spring of their junior year and the fall of their senior year. Some students only take it once and some choose to take it multiple times. Please come in and talk to me if you have questions. We are beginning the ACT Prep class this week. Most of the juniors and sophomores are in this class. Parents, please encourage your student to take advantage of this opportunity to increase their ACT score. ACT Prep is an online course that gives students practice questions and tests and covers the concepts tested on the ACT. It takes hard work and time to achieve significant results.The State has paid for all juniors to take the ACT on February 25th during the school day.
