South Lake High

A student who is chronically absent in high school is 7.4X more likely to dropout. Make school attendance a priority! #HereTodayReadyforTomorrow

Building strong, trusting relationships that promote a feeling of belonging is fundamental to improving student attendance & engagement. #HereTodayReadyforTomorrow

Absenteeism is a lost opportunity to learn. We can’t afford to think of absenteeism as merely a lack of compliance with school rules. Let's work together as a community to make regular school attendance a priority.

When a student misses so many days that they are chronically absent (10% or more days) it means the lack of engagement in learning is an ongoing problem that needs to be addressed. Chronic absence affects all kids, not just the absent ones. #HereTodayReadyforTomorrow

Health-related absences are a top reason students miss school, yet sometimes they can be avoided. Partner with health providers to keep students healthy and in school! #HereTodayReadyforTomorrow

September is Attendance Awareness Month! Let's help students build a habit of good attendance early and often. #HereTodayReadyforTomorrow

We are excited to share that School Cash has replaced our previous payment system, RevTrac. When you log into your School Cash account, you will notice a variety of items listed. Think of it as a catalog—a complete list of available fees, activities, fines, and optional purchases for the school year. Please note: Just because an item appears in your catalog does not mean your student is required to pay it. Only select and pay for items that apply to your student. Thank you for your understanding and patience as we adjust to a new platform.
