The Letcher County School District is putting an emphasis on school attendance this year.
They have launched a district-wide attendance campaign with the motto, “Show Up, Stand Out, Succeed” which will include various attendance messages throughout the year including tips and tricks for a successful school year.
The first one, currently posted on the district social media, is from Superintendent Denise Yonts who says consistent attendance shows up in better grades, graduation rates and social skills.
