Every Minute Counts!

Attendance Matters

Why Attendance & Punctuality Matter

Consistent daily attendance and arriving on time set the foundation for your child's academic success and lifelong learning habits. While missing a few minutes here or a day there might not seem like much, it adds up quickly:
  • 10–20 Minutes Late a Day equals up to 1.5 to 2.5 weeks of lost learning over the course of a single school year.
  • 1 Hour Late a Day accumulates to 8 full weeks of missed instruction per year.
  • 1 Day Absent a Week leads to 40 days missed each year, adding up to over 2.5 years of lost education throughout a student's school career.
When students arrive on time, they start the morning feeling settled, ready to learn, and fully aligned with their teacher’s instruction. Every instructional minute provides key opportunities for growth, collaborative learning, and staying connected with classroom routines.
Thank you for partnering with us to prioritize regular attendance and timely arrivals. Your support helps ensure our Wildcats reach their full potential!
