🍎Principal's Message

School Attendance Reminder: Every Minute Counts in Our Learning Community

Dear SELS Families,

As we work together to support our students' growth, success, and sense of community, we want to gently remind everyone about the vital role consistent daily school attendance plays in your child's learning.

Every minute of the school day counts. When students arrive late or leave early, they miss essential morning community routines, key instructional lessons, end-of-day reviews, and time with their peers. Additionally, late arrivals and early pickups disrupt the learning environment for the entire classroom.

So far this school year, our community has recorded 258 tardies and 290 early departures.
To help ensure every student gets the most out of their school day, please keep the following in mind:

  • Aim for On-Time Arrival: Ensure your student arrives before the morning bell so they can start their day prepared and calm.
  • Schedule Appointments Outside School Hours: Whenever possible, please schedule medical, dental, and personal appointments after dismissal.
  • Reserve Early Pickups for Emergencies: Limit early check-outs to urgent and unavoidable situations.

Thank you for your partnership, dedication, and support in making school attendance a top priority for our children!
