๐ŸŽ‰ Day 4 Update โ€“ House Attendance Challenge ๐ŸŽ‰

Congratulations to Innovation House for taking the win today! ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ’š Your commitment to showing up and being present is paying off.

But the biggest question remainsโ€ฆ ๐Ÿ‘€
๐Ÿ‘‰ Will any House rise to the greatest challenge and achieve 100% attendance before the end of the competition?

Day 4 Attendance Challenge Flyer
STRONG ATTENDANCE = STRONG LEARNING ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŽ

When students are in class every day, they gain the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed.

Attendance always matters, but October 6-10 is especially important. That's the week the state takes its enrollment snapshot to decide school funding for the year.

โœ… Students in class = accurate snapshot = the right funding to support stronger schools in our A-rated District and better opportunities for our kids.

Let's work together to make sure our students are here next weekโ€”it makes a difference for everyone.

Our 2nd graders are at it again! Our incredible 2nd graders have been working hard and showing what it means to be curious, creative learners! In math, theyโ€™ve been exploring a variety of strategies to solve problems, and even taking their learning outside-one student used leaves at recess to build arrays! In writing, theyโ€™re crafting thoughtfulย ย opinion essays, learning how to express their ideas clearly and confidently.ย ย In social studies, theyโ€™ve been traveling the globe (through books and maps!) as they learn about the continents and oceans. Theyโ€™ve also been visiting the Media Center to grow their love of reading and discover new books. ๐Ÿ“š Keep up the amazing work, 2nd graders- weโ€™re so proud of you! #BCEGators #LearninginAction #UnstoppableTogether

๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿ† House Attendance Challenge Starts Monday, September 29th! ๐Ÿ†๐ŸŽ‰

Gator Families, get ready! Our House Attendance Challenge kicks off this Monday! Each day, weโ€™ll track attendance by House and award bonus points to any House that reaches 100% attendance. Which House will come out on top? ๐ŸŠ

Why does attendance matter? Because every day in school builds success!
๐ŸŒŸ Students who attend regularly are more likely to read on grade level by 3rd grade. This is a key milestone for future success.
๐ŸŒŸ Consistent attendance helps students build confidence, friendships, and strong learning habits that last a lifetime.
๐ŸŒŸ Kids who come to school every day are more likely to graduate high school and chase their dreams in college, careers, and beyond.

Letโ€™s show our "Bessey Best" by being on time, present, and ready to learn each and every day! ๐Ÿ’ชโœจ

๐Ÿ‘‰ Families, we need your help! Make sure your Gator is at school on time daily so their House can earn points AND set them up for success.
