The community of P.224Q continuously develops and refines their educational practices supporting their beliefs that students learn best when: · They are taught through well-planned targeted, and differentiated lessons designed to give all students access to the curriculum and accelerate their learning · When they are presented with learning activities related to a lesson that challenge their thinking and give multiple opportunities for application of material taught · When they are given immediate meaningful feedback and opportunities to self-assess · When they are taught in an environment where they feel safe to learn and take risks to develop their understanding

Important Message

Attendance:

Students are expected to attend school every day.

95% attendance is recommended by the P. 224Q Attendance Committee. Good attendance has a high correlation to student success.

Parents are expected to call the school when a student is absent to inform us of the reason. If we do not hear from you, the school will contact your home.

A written note must accompany the child upon his or her return to school, as required by education law. A doctor’s note can excuse a student from an unauthorized absence.

An attendance teacher will be notified if a student is absent for three or more days and we are unable to contact the parent. In addition, after three days you will need to contact the bus company to reinstate pick up.

If a student is going out of town for an extended period you are required to put in writing where the student is going, for how long they will be away and leave a phone number where contact can be made even if it is out of the country.
