5th Grade Perfect Attendance Bike Rules

Announcement from a great Community Sponsor: Crump-Reese Motors would like to continue to give bikes away to 5th Graders with Perfect Attendance this year. We want to let our 5th grade students know the requirements to qualify for these bikes so all students, parents, and faculty from every school are aware and on the same page.

Perfect attendance is being to school more than half of the day 100% of the days. They can have ONE tardy or ONE half day early check out but if more than one they don't qualify. Perfect attendance does not mean showing up for role call and leaving and tardy is coming more than 15 minutes after school starts. This is a hard thing to do and we want all students at all schools to have the same chance to earn a bike.

Thank you Crump Reese Motors for sponsoring this for our students.

**From Mrs. Arehart- Parents please know your child's health and well being come first, please help your children not put extra pressures on themselves to come to school when they do not feel good, or if they have an extra curricular opportunity. When these times happen, they may need to miss school and it is what it is. This reward is honoring those students that just happen to have it work, that they did have a perfect attendance year.
