We had a wonderful morning of learning and celebrating staff. This morning we learned more about teaching students to use context clues when reading. This learning was lead by some of our fabulous teacher leaders. Thank you, Ms. Grady, Ms. Rivera, and Ms. Natto!
We also celebrated our Gator Teachers of the Month - Ms. Thompson, Mr. Richardson, and Mr. Ramirez. Thank you for all you do!
Today we had a blast celebrating Hispanic Heritage Month. We had a District representative sharing information to assist ELL families, games, music, food, piñata, and dancing. Families really enjoyed the time together. Thank you to everyone that helped make this event a success!

Absenteeism is a lost opportunity to learn. We can’t afford to think of absenteeism as merely a lack of compliance with school rules. Let's work together as a community to make regular school attendance a priority.

When a student misses so many days that they are chronically absent (10% or more days) it means the lack of engagement in learning is an ongoing problem that needs to be addressed. Chronic absence affects all kids, not just the absent ones. #HereTodayReadyforTomorrow
