Attendance - Attendance - Attendance

Some troubled students miss from 20 to as many as 40 days of school per year.  Therefore, attendance will be required to test for each day's Smart-Words.  (For example:  those missing two (2) days of school can only test for the three days in attendance).  With attendance so required, you can expect a tremendous reduction in absenteeism.  You will also find that parents will add additional pressures to attend school.  In this manner, we are not bribing students.  We disagree with bribery, but rather, rewarding students for academic achievements is positive reinforcement.
