Hello KMMS families,
We want to thank our parents for their supportive role in getting students to school. School attendance is so important to the academic growth and maturation of our students. Strong attendance helps our students:
Grasp key concepts and skills they'll need for high school and beyond.
Learn responsibility for the expectations of future education and work.
Reduce stress: When students attend regularly, they're less likely to fall behind and feel overwhelmed trying to catch up.
Foster a sense of belonging: Regular attendance helps students feel connected to their school community.
Provide structure and routine: A consistent school schedule can be comforting and stabilizing for adolescents.
Ensure access to support: Kids in school regularly are more likely to receive help from teachers or counselors if needed.
We celebrated our students who had strong attendance during the month of September with a drawing to play “Plinko.” Twenty student names were drawn and those students won KM hats, shirts, water bottles, stickers, and gift cards. We’ll draw another 20 names for the month of October. A big thank you to our PTO for sponsoring these incentive items!
Thank you for your partnership,
Matt Kitzerow
