September is Attendance Awareness Month. Did you know absenteeism in the first month of school can predict poor attendance throughout the school year. Half the students who miss 2-4 days in September go on to miss nearly a month of school. Together, let's make every day count!

4th graders are learning about the four different types of social sciences: economics, geography, civics, and history. In their first lesson of our new social studies program, students read about each social science and created a web of symbols and pictures to represent each one. Students finished the lesson by doing a poster walk to notice and discuss similarities.
