September is Attendance Awareness Month! Absenteeism in the 1st month of school can predict poor attendance throughout the school year. Half the students who miss 2-4 days in Sept go on to miss nearly a month of school. #schooleveryday attendanceworks.org @AlabamaAchieves

Commit yourself to a year of learning. Students, whether you are starting this school year in a traditional classroom, virtually, or in a blended/hybrid scenario, this year will be very different. Study hard, work hard, be flexible, & do your part to keep yourself and others safe
