Our commitment to providing the best education for your children remains unwavering, and we believe these changes will enhance our efforts.
What's Changing? It's important to note that these changes are not school policy adjustments but rather a state-mandated initiative as outlined in Ohio HB 410. Under the provisions of this legislation, there have been updates to the way missed class time is tracked. Our goal is to ensure that students receive the necessary support to excel academically while complying with the new attendance regulations.
Understanding the Changes: To help you grasp the new calculation methods, we've created a helpful graphic that outlines the different ways absences will now be tracked. This visual aid will be a valuable reference as you navigate the attendance policy adjustments.
Why These Changes Matter: We believe that these changes will lead to improved communication between parents, students, and educators regarding attendance. By keeping a closer eye on missed class time, we can collectively ensure that every student receives the support they need to succeed.
What You Can Expect: Our school staff is fully prepared to implement these changes seamlessly. You'll notice more transparent communication about missed class time and a stronger focus on providing necessary resources to support your child's education.
We understand that change can bring questions, and we're here to address any concerns you may have. Feel free to reach out to our attendance department or your child's respective school office for clarification or assistance.
