Mrs. Monaghan's and Mrs. Curtner's third graders were feeling a little "BATTY" this week! They read in a bat cave, researched, measured, multiplied, divided, planted, and enjoyed a batty treat!

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.
