📚🏫 Daily Attendance Matters at HOMS! 🏫📚
Did you know that even just 1 absence a month can lead to chronic absenteeism and cause students to fall behind in their classes? At Hidden Oaks Middle School, we believe that every day counts!
We're excited to start displaying our Monthly Attendance to highlight the importance of being present. It's crucial that we work together as a community to ensure our scholars are at school daily.
We love seeing them on our campus and watching them grow!
Take a look at October's Average Daily Attendance rate so far: 93.94% 🎉
Also, 244 scholars have not been absent from a day of school this year!
Let's keep up the great work and strive for even better attendance! 💪
