DCPS Attendance Policy
At DC Public Schools (DCPS), it is the goal to ensure that every student achieves academic success by being present at school every day and on time. Students who have regular school attendance learn more and are more successful in school. DCPS has shifted focus from monitoring only unexcused absences to all absences by tracking In-Seat Attendance (ISA). Some absences are unavoidable, but when children miss too much school - excused or unexcused - they can fall behind. 

At Back to School Night, PTA President Ben Champa talked about several options for community events that the PTA could host this fall or on a recurring basis.  Because your interest in an event is vital to its success, the PTA has prepared a poll where you can let us know which of the options interest you the most.  Please take the poll and rank the options, so the PTA can get started planning some fun events for the Brent community!
