December Parent Involvement
Posted on 11/30/2018

Dear Families,
Are you planning a family trip for the holidays? As you think about your arrangements, we want to stress the importance of sending your child to school every day. Every year, absences spike in the weeks before and after the winter holiday as families squeeze in a few more vacation days.

This year we would like to break that cycle. We know that just a few missed days here and there, even if they’re excused absences, can add up to loss of learning time and put your child behind in school. This is as true in kindergarten as it is in high school. We recognize that Holidays are an important time for reconnecting with families far away, however; our teachers will be teaching, and our students will be learning, right up until vacation starts and the first day back.

This Holiday season, give your children the habit of good attendance. We wish you Holiday Joy and a Happy New Year!

Sincerely,
Spring Creek Elementary
