🐾 Loma Vista Attendance Update: February 🐾

February may be a shorter month, but it is a powerful one for learning and connection. Daily attendance continues to play a key role in helping students feel confident and capable at school.

📸January Attendance Snapshot:

In January, our school continued working toward our attendance goal of 97%

  • 2 days at 96% 

  • 9 days at 95%

  • 3 days at 94% 

  • 4 days at 93%

  • 1 day at 92% 

While we did not meet our 97% goal, these numbers show steady effort and progress.

Why does attendance matter in February?

February is a critical month for reinforcing skills and preparing students for spring learning. When students attend school consistently, they can:

  • Strengthen routines and independence

  • Continue building confidence in their learning

  • Stay connected with peers and teachers

  • Avoid gaps that can make learning feel overwhelming later

Even missing a few days can interrupt progress, especially as lessons build on one another.

🏠 Partnering with Families: One Simple Action Step

Families make a huge difference in student attendance! This month, we invite families to take one small but powerful step……

  • 👉 Set a February Attendance Goal with your child.

    Talk with your student about coming to school every day, and choose a goal together, such as perfect attendance for a week or the whole month. Post the goal somewhere visible at home and check in daily.

🎉 February Attendance Motivation

Students who maintain 97% attendance in February will be entered into a drawing to win lunch with Ms. Kate. Encourage your Leopard to finish the month strong and proud of their commitment to showing up each day!
