Project Goal

Corr Elementary School is striving to improve our school’s daily attendance from 89.4% to 94% this academic school year. In order to achieve this goal Corr Elementary School Attendance Team has created an Attendance Campaign that will address individual students, classroom and grade level incentives. The campaign will also include a variety of opportunities for parents to learn about the importance of attendance.

How Project Benefits Students

Last school year Corr Elementary School’s Attendance Team launched an extremely successful Attendance Campaign that educated our students and families about the importance of attendance. This school year we would like to expand the campaign in order to reach more students and families. In order to reach more of our school community for the 24-25 school year the Attendance Campaign, "Be present, be powerful" will increase the monthly incentives and expand resources to families. To get more student involvement each month expansion to the whole grade level versus individual classes will be implemented. Attendance Information tables will be set up for families at each on-campus event throughout the year. The Information tables will consist of literature on the importance of attendance, giveaways and opportunities to participate in raffles.
