Did you know?
Missing 10% of school (2 days each month) can make it harder to learn to read and do basic math.
By 9th grade, attendance is a better predictor of graduation rates than 8th-grade test scores.
Students should miss no more than 9 days of school each year to stay engaged and on track to graduation.

Swink School would like to invite students' families to share in a Thanksgiving meal on Wednesday, November 18. Each student is limited to two (2) guests to join them for lunch. Meals are $5.00. Please RSVP using the following link:
