ATTENDANCE MATTERS

Community

School attendance is a community issue, and improving it takes all of us. Every child's success shapes the future of our workforce, economy, public health, and quality of life. Whether you represent a business, faith community, nonprofit, civic organization, or are simply invested in your community's future, you can play a meaningful role in helping students show up, succeed, and thrive.
