Enterprise Elementary and Sherwood Forest Elementary recently celebrated an exciting achievement. In January, 135 scholars from Enterprise and 88 scholars from Sherwood Forest had perfect attendance! These scholars were in class, on time, every day, ready to learn.
Attendance is celebrated at Enterprise with each scholar receiving a personal certificate for each month they achieve 90% attendance. Enterprise scholars with 90% or better attendance during a quarter of the school year are also able to attend their “Atten-Dance” party.
Over at Sherwood Forest Elementary, scholars receive a colorful perfect attendance wristband for every month they have perfect attendance. Scholars are encouraged to earn every month’s wristband so that they can wear them and celebrate collectively.
