Any student with two or fewer absences during the six-week grading period is eligible for the first attendance award. Madilynn maintained exceptional attendance and will receive an iPad for her consistent positive presence!
The second award recognizes a student from the grade level with the highest overall attendance. Our 7th grade class tied with the 6th grade class and finished ahead of the 8th grade by 0.25%. As a result, both the 6th and 7th grades qualified as eligible! Azlyn, a 7th grader with outstanding attendance, is taking home headphones, a crossover, and a JBL speaker for her dedication to learning.
Great job, Madilynn and Azlyn!
