The students and staff at San Saba Elementary, a National Showcase School for Capturing Kids’ Hearts, are working hard to improve attendance in school! For the first 9-Week Grading Period (August 6 - October 3, 2024), 148 out of 304 students attended school every day! These students were rewarded with purple lol-lipops and were celebrated by their SSES peers and educators! Research from the National Center for Education Statistics (nces.ed.gov) shows that attendance is an important factor in student achievement. We believe at San Saba Elementary that attendance habits start in grades PK3-4th grade. If students have good attendance during these years, students usually maintain good attendance in middle/high school and post-secondary school as well as in their future workplaces and careers. Thank you to our parents and community for promoting good attendance in school, starting with our Littlest Dillos!
