Did you know? Missing 10% of school days, just 2 days each month, can put children at risk of academic failure. http://bit.ly/1oqfID7 #SchoolEveryDay

We are working hard to improve student attendance at Finney this year. We will recognize the classes that meet our goal of 98% or better attendance each week. Congratulations to Mrs. Nguyen’s class, Room 402, with 98.7% attendance. Whole school attendance last week was 93.6%.

Students can use all district online programs over break: i-Ready Math, Smarty Ants Reading (PreK-2nd grade), and Achieve3000 Reading (2nd-6th grade). Click here for the student sign on page. If you need your child’s log on information, ask your teacher. Also, make sure your child READS every day. Reading for pleasure is one of the best ways to get better at reading!
