Prioritizing School Attendance - Every Day Counts. Start Strong, Stay Strong

Prioritizing School Attendance - Every Day Counts. Start Strong, Stay Strong

School attendance is essential to every student’s success, and absences can easily lead to academic trouble and create gaps in relationships with friends. 
 
CJUSD encourages all families to minimize absences unless a child is ill. Families should get their children to school on time and align vacations and appointments with the school calendar to avoid unnecessary absences. Each day missed at school is a missed day of instruction, a day of classroom interaction with students and teachers that cannot be recovered. 
 
Please avoid discretionary travel during school and plan vacations and trips during calendar breaks. There is no substitute for in-person instruction.
