We are kicking off a new attendance challenge for the month of October. Classes will work together to earn pumpkins for their attendance.
The first 3 classes to earn 10 pumpkins will receive a special treat bag!
Let’s work together to make October our best attendance month yet. Every day counts, every student matters, and every day you show up brings your class one step closer to 10 pumpkins.
Which three classes will be the first to reach the goal?
