Happy first day of autumn! It's time to say goodbye to the heat of summer and welcome the cool breezes of fall.
This season brings with it a vibrant display of colors as the leaves change, the smell of pumpkin spice in the air, and the excitement of upcoming school holidays (yes, some of us are already dreaming of winter break!).
Take a moment to appreciate the beauty of our changing season, whether you're sipping on a hot cider or taking a walk through your neighborhood, make sure to celebrate this first day of autumn in your own special way!

It's important to understand that chronic poor attendance in kindergarten and first grade is one of the best predictors of which students will eventually drop out of school. Missing just two days a month adds up to chronic absence. On the other hand, students who come to school regularly have far better options and opportunities open to them. Regular school attendance is linked to building trusting relationships, a healthier lifestyle, less risky teen behaviors, better time management, improved mental health, better social capital, and greater economic opportunities.
So let's encourage our young students to attend school regularly and make the most out of their educational opportunities! 🚀👨🎓👩🎓📚
