Attendance Update
Did you know that missing 18 days in a school year is considered chronically absent? This not only impacts students’ academic wellbeing, but also their social relationships with their peers. McMillin’s Chronic Absenteeism Rate for the 23-24 school year was 12%. We dropped an outstanding 6% from the year prior! We’d like to continue that trend and our chronic absenteeism goal for this year is 8%.
Here’s our attendance from last week. Our goal is to reach 97% attendance overall each week. Our overall average last week was: 93.68 %.
We miss you when you’re out!
