Bayshore Elementary School District

School attendance is essential to every student’s success, and absences can easily lead to academic trouble and create gaps in relationships with friends. 

Bayshore Elementary School District encourages all families to minimize absences unless a child is ill. Families should get their children to school as often as possible, on time, and align vacations and appointments with the school calendar to avoid unnecessary absences. Each day missed at school is a missed day of instruction, a day of classroom interaction with students and teachers that cannot be recovered. Chronic absenteeism impacts all students—no matter their age. Students who miss just two days a month for any reason are more likely to not read at grade level. 

 

Please prioritize your child's attendance, avoid discretionary travel during school, and plan vacations and trips during calendar breaks. There is no substitute for in-person instruction.

For your planning purposes, here is a list of upcoming breaks and important dates for the 2024-2025 school year:

MLK Jr Day: January 20, 2025

Presidents Week: February 17-21, 2025
