Wayne Elementary School has achieved a remarkable milestone in its battle against chronic absenteeism. With a current rate of just 8.5%, the school has reached a historic multi-year low, demonstrating the effectiveness of our comprehensive attendance initiatives.
Research consistently shows that regular school attendance is strongly linked to academic achievement, social development, and future success. Students with high attendance rates demonstrate stronger reading and math skills, build more positive peer relationships, and are more likely to graduate on time. Each school day provides critical learning opportunities that cannot be fully replaced.
Special congratulations to our kindergarten class for achieving perfect attendance during the month of February! This extraordinary accomplishment reflects the dedication of our youngest students, their families, and their teachers. Their commitment sets a powerful example for the entire school community.
Wayne Elementary remains committed to supporting all families in maintaining strong attendance patterns as we continue working together for student success.
