Description
The team at the Office of School Support is dedicated to enhancing school attendance across the entire district. When students miss classes, it becomes challenging for them to be adequately prepared and engaged in their education. Higher attendance rates are linked to better academic performance and improved graduation statistics. The attendance team collaborates with schools, students, families, and partners from Ramsey County to take proactive measures when attendance issues first arise. It is crucial that parents or guardians inform the school each time their child is absent, as not all absences will be considered excused. To report an absence, it is necessary to either call the main office or submit a note detailing the reason for the absence in a clear manner. The process for attendance support within SPPS consists of three stages, becoming increasingly serious if a student continues to miss school. After a student accumulates three unexcused absences, an alert letter regarding attendance is sent home to the parents. Should the student incur further absences without a valid excuse, the school will initiate the intervention procedure, emphasizing the importance of consistent attendance and the collaborative effort to support every student's educational journey.
