ATTENDANCE MATTERS!

We are committed to our goal of every student being in the classroom and ready to learn every day! Attending school regularly helps children feel better about school—and themselves. 

Start building this habit in preschool so they learn right away that going to school on time, every day is important. Eventually good attendance will be a skill that will help them succeed in high school and college.

WATCH THE DROP OFF AND PICK UP TUTORIAL VIDEO HERE!

The main goals for the WUE Parking Lot are to: ensure all students and drivers are safe and protected as they are dropping off and picking up and that we can get vehicles in and out as quickly and safely as possible.

In order to obtain those goals we need everyone to be on the same page and do their part. If we all work together and follow the information below we can make sure the mornings and afternoons are as stress free as possible. Thank you for doing your part!
