Happy New Year Washington Families,
I hope your winter break was full of joy, excitement and outdoor adventures. I just love to ski and this winter break was perfect for skiing.
Monday and Tuesday prior to Christmas break we had 20% of our population absent because of sickness. I sure hope the sickness has passed and we have a building full of healthy kids. Speaking of absences. If your child is unable to be at school but feels well enough to do school work please reach out to their teacher. We have learned that students who miss even a few days of school each month are at a far greater risk of academic failure and dropout than students who attend regularly. We have set a goal that every student in our school has nine or fewer absences in a year. I understand that perfect attendance is often unachievable due to illness, etc. We will reward students for excellent attendance throughout the school year. Excellent attendance is missing nine or less days throughout the school year. We want to see your child at least 95% of the time!
We are excited to have our Cougars back and in the building. Please read my monthly newsletter below!
Take Care,
Tassia Hamer
