Attendance

Attendance = Achievement!

Windham Public Schools believes students must attend school every day in order to prepare them for success in college, career, and life. Our district takes a proactive approach to minimize absences, to assist families, and to help them to understand the impact of absenteeism on achievement. 

We're here to help!
In order to optimize students attendance, Windham Public Schools has appointed Attendance Review teams in every school. These teams may include administrators, guidance counselors, school social workers, teachers and representatives from community-based programs who address truancy and attendance issues. Teams review cases of truant and chronically absent children, discuss school interventions and community referrals and make recommendations for such students and parents/guardians.

If you have attendance questions for your student(s), please reach out to your child(ren)'s school.
