Calhoun County Schools is working hard to promote attendance and reduce chronic absenteeism. Attendance is an instrumental part of academic success. Getting your child to school on-time, every day, unless they are sick, is something that you can do to ensure your child has a chance to succeed in school. You can promote good attendance when you: Establish and stick to the basic routines (going to bed early, waking up on time, etc.) that will help your child develop the habit of on-time attendance. Talk to your child about why going to school every day is critical and important unless they are sick. If your child seems reluctant to go to school, find out why and work with the teacher, administrator or afterschool provider to get them excited about going to school. Come up with back up plans for who to turn to (another family member, a neighbor or fellow parents) to help you get your child to school if something comes up (e.g. another child gets sick, your car breaks down, etc.). Reach out for help if you are experiencing tough times (e.g. transportation, unstable housing, loss of a job, health problems) that make it difficult to get your child to school. Other parents, your child’s teacher, principal, social worker, school nurse, afterschool providers or community agencies can help you problem solve or connect you to a needed resource. If your child is absent, work with the teacher to make sure she or he has an opportunity to learn and make up for the academics missed. https://5il.co/30y94

The levy will fund a Prevention Resource Officer for the county, enhancing security in our school and providing valuable support to staff. We’re proud of our amazing police department here in Calhoun, and this will allow us to have an officer dedicated specifically to the school system. Their presence will strengthen the safety and security of both students and staff. Additionally, the officer will be able to assist with educational components in our classes, further enriching our school environment.

We all know how essential school nurses are to the well-being of our students and staff. Our current school nurse plays a crucial role in the daily routine—whether it's caring for sick students, assisting staff, or handling emergencies. The School Levy would allow us to hire an additional nurse to float between Pleasant Hill Elementary and Arnoldsburg Elementary. This would greatly benefit both students and staff across the county.
