#AttendanceMatters
Help your teen stay engaged:
• Find out if your children feel engaged by their classes, and feel safe from bullies and other threats.
• Make sure your children are not missing class because of challenges with behavioral issues or school discipline policies.
If any of these are problems, contact the school and work with them to find a solution.
• Monitor you child’s academic progress and seek help from teachers or tutors when necessary. Make sure teachers know
how to contact you.
• Stay on top of your child’s social contacts. Peer pressure can lead to skipping school,
while students without many friends can feel isolated.
• Encourage your child to join meaningful after-school activities, including sports and clubs.
• Notice and support your children if they are showing signs of anxiety.
Frontier Students enjoyed PJ day!

Tomorrow, December 8th, students in grades 7-8 will take their benchmark tests in English and Math. Students in grades K-6 are also taking their benchmark tests throughout the next two weeks. Please make sure that Chromebooks are charged and ready to go (7-8). Teachers can use the scores from these benchmarks to inform instruction, personalize learning, and monitor the growth of individual students. Principals and administrators can use the scores to see the performance and progress of a grade level, school, or the entire district. #BetterTogether #FrontierPride
Thursday morning , Dec. 9, all students in grades 9-12 will take their middle of year benchmark. At FHS we utilize a practice ACT test for our benchmark to allow our students ample opportunities to take the test used for state assessment, scholarships, and college class placement. Please make sure students are well rested and their Chromebooks are charged and at school. Thank you! #BetterTogether #FrontierPride

DID YOU KNOW?
• By 6th grade, absenteeism is one of three signs that a student may drop out of high school.
• By 9th grade, attendance is a better predictor of graduation rates than 8th grade test scores.
WHAT CAN YOU DO?
Make school attendance a priority
• Talk about the importance of showing up to school every day.
• Help your children maintain daily routines, such as finishing homework and getting a good night’s sleep.
• Try not to schedule dental and non-Covid-19 related medical appointments during the school day.
• Keep your child healthy, and if you are concerned about Covid-19, call your school for advice.
• If your children must stay home because they are sick or in quarantine, make sure they have asked teachers for resources
and materials to make up for the missed learning time in the classroom.
