@artsimse @ELmagazine Something as simple as, "I missed you when you were gone yesterday" can go a long way to making a student feel that they are noticed and valued!

Concerned about chronic absenteeism? We've found that changing the trajectory requires a shift in approach and mindset. Check out my recent @ASCD @ELmagazine blog article about how to move towards a culture of attendance! https://t.co/2uHIHMx5Fk

What do we do when we have ⭐️66⭐️ families who struggled with attendance last year but have higher than 95% attendance this year? Create make and take thank you bags for our families! @kckschools @Mstewart_2u @DrJWilson1906 @MrsChauvinSW @GrantMustangs @JessicaSprick

Four years ago 50% of our students were chronically absent. Today we celebrated 79 students having PERFECT attendance the first quarter, and an additional 120 students with over 95% attendance! @kckschools @MsAFSutherland @JessicaSprick @DrJWilson1906 @Mstewart_2u #bettereveryday

@heathercalvert @kckschools @MsAFSutherland @DrJWilson1906 @Mstewart_2u Keep up the great work! You all are making so much difference as you set goals with kids and families, work to provide supports, and acknowledge growth and success. I hope I can come visit y'all some day!

@heathercalvert @kckschools @Mstewart_2u @DrJWilson1906 @MrsChauvinSW @GrantMustangs This is so fantastic @heathercalvert and team! Is it alright if I share this with others as I talk about this topic?

“Our goal is that 100% of students are successful, and our system should be designed to catch kids in multiple ways so they can thrive. Can 80-90% of our students do so with existing schoolwide supports?”

“Strategies by nature are not tier 1, 2, or 3. They are tailored to how many students you have who need them.”Example - deep breathing. @JessicaSprick @AtchisonPublic @doc_nuge

@nhoneywell409 @SafeAndCivil @AtchisonPublic @doc_nuge Great to have you in the session Nichole! I had Latisha from Atchison HS in my summer session this summer, and she was amazing. Seems like you have a great crew in Atchison Public

Soak the Admin Day! AHS had 95% Average Attendance 3 weeks in a row so a mystery motivator is in order!! Ss were able to throw water balloons at the Admin! @JessicaSprick loved the mystery motivated! @AtchisonPublic @ahsphoenix #WeAre409 @RevBClardy @ADTLue
