Attendance Matters! We miss our students when they're not here! When a student misses school, they're missing out on their education. #NoMissNovember #GoBobcats #ALLIN
November is "NO-MISS NOVEMBER" at Hope Public Schools! Every student who has perfect attendance during the month of November will receive a prize during the first week of December.
To qualify for the prize, students must attend school every school day during the month of November.
During the first week of December, we will gather the lists of all the students who had perfect attendance and those students will receive a prize! EACH STUDENT WITH PERFECT ATTENDANCE WINS A PRIZE! Prizes to be determined.
Throughout the month, we will be encouraging students to come to school and sharing information with parents to help them understand the importance of their students being present at school.
