KIPP New Orleans

🎒✨ Every Day Counts—Even for Our Littlest Learners! ✨🎒 At KIPP New Orleans, we know strong attendance starts at home—and our amazing Office Manager, Ms. Emerald Greathouse at KIPP Believe, is here to break it down for families in this week’s Attendance Matters video 💜 She’s joined by Officer Nippie and Nurse Burkhalter, who help families understand the real difference between excused and unexcused absences—and what to do when you’re unsure. 👶🏾 Pre-K and Kindergarten? Yes, it counts! Every day helps our youngest KIPPsters build routines, friendships, and confidence for a strong future. 🤒 Headache? Try Tylenol or Advil and come to school. 👩🏾⚕️ Always consult with your child’s doctor if you’re unsure—but remember, every day in school matters. 👕 No uniform yet? Come anyway—we got you. ✅ Excused absences include fever, medical appointments, or family emergencies. 📊 Students with strong attendance are 25% more likely to hit high academic success. We’re building habits, confidence, and imagining great futures—together. Let’s keep showing up, KIPP family! 💪🏾📚 #AttendanceMatters #KIPPNewOrleansSchools #EveryDayCounts #BrightFuturesTogether #ShowUpToShowOut
