Please join us in helping students form the good attendance habits.

Children can copy notes or make up an assignment, but they can never get back what’s most important: the discussions, the questions, the explanations by the teacher, and the thinking that makes learning come alive.

We are asking that all families join us in helping students form the good attendance habits—being present each day and on time—that will help them succeed in school and beyond.

Attending school regularly helps children feel better about school and themselves.

Missing just two days a month means a child misses 10% of the school year. That's 10% less learning, smiling, growing, and achieving.

Attend Today. Achieve Tomorrow.

Our School Site Council has two openings typically filled by our parents. The Council is one of the most important decision-making groups at Castlemont and is composed of five parent/community members and five representatives from the school’s staff.

The Council reviews the school plan annually, establishes a budget, makes modifications as necessary, and assists in the evaluation of the school’s programs. Members are elected by the groups that they represent. Parent and community representatives and alternates are elected for a two-year term. There will be five meetings this school year on Mondays at 3:00.

If you are interested in being added to the ballot for Parent/Community members, please submit a brief biography for the ballot to the office staff. We will have the election in Mid-September. If you have more questions about the council please ask in the office.
