Dear Snowy Range Academy Families,

Welcome back to another exciting school year at Snowy Range Academy! We hope you enjoyed a restorative summer and are ready for a year filled with learning, growth, and memorable experiences. As we kick off the school year, we want to shine a spotlight on September being Attendance Awareness Month.

The Importance of Consistent Attendance

Regular school attendance is crucial for student success. Every day of school is an opportunity to learn, grow, and build relationships with peers and teachers. Research shows that students who attend school regularly are more likely to excel academically, develop social skills, and have higher graduation rates. We encourage all families to prioritize school attendance and ensure that your children are present and engaged each day. Please help us support the importance of attendance by ensuring your children show up to school on time, prepared and ready to learn. 

If your student does have to miss school, please notify the office as soon as possible and provide information so we can excuse the absence. Absences not called in will be considered unexcused. 

In addition to the importance of attendance, we would like to remind parents about the significance of students knowing their home address and at least one parent or guardian phone number by heart. Being able to recall this information can be extremely beneficial in certain situations, such as emergencies and is a helpful life skill. 

Here are a couple of suggestions to help your child memorize this crucial information:

• Practice Together: Set aside time for your child to practice saying their address and phone number regularly. Quiz them on your next car ride together. 

• Incorporate Fun: Make a game out of it! Sing a song or create a rhyme to help them remember.

Let’s Make This Year Incredible!

As we embark on this new school year, we want to reiterate how grateful we are for your ongoing support, trust, and collaboration. Together, we can create a nurturing environment where students feel safe, loved, and inspired to learn. 

Thank you for being an essential part of our school community. We look forward to an amazing year ahead filled with learning, discovery, and success

Warm regards,

Caroline Hickerson

School Principal
