πβ¨ So Proud of Our Amazing First Graders! β¨π
Our first graders have been working incredibly hard to become young authors! They dove into the genre of informative writing and each student chose a special animal to study. Through research and fact-finding, they became true little experts on their animals!
The best part? Each student created their very own informational book. From start to finish! πΎπ Their creativity, focus, and determination truly amazed us.
We are so proud of their hard work and canβt wait for you to see these future authors in action! π

π§€π²As we celebrate the holiday season and battle the inevitable cold and flu season, we want to emphasize the crucial role that regular school attendance plays in your child's academic success. π Research consistently shows that students who attend school regularly perform better academically than those with chronic absenteeism, providing a solid foundation for future achievement. ππ
β¨ Here are some actionable tips to help prioritize attendance even in the face of controllable factors: β¨
βͺοΈ Plan Vacations Strategically: Consider planning trips during school breaks or weekends to avoid unnecessary disruptions to your child's education.
βͺοΈ Communicate: Identifying & addressing issues early can prevent prolonged absences.
βͺοΈ Schedule Appointments Strategically: Whenever possible, try to schedule routine appointments outside of school hours or during breaks.
βͺοΈ Utilize Support Services: Take advantage of the support services offered by our district.

On the 80th & 120th day of school, APS captures a snapshot of the bus ridership to report to NMPED.

Transportation funding not only supports students' daily rides to and from school, it can also support in-district school field trips.
On Monday, December 1st, if your child is a bus rider please help us provide an accurate count by having them ride the bus. Thank you and see you soon!
