Sixth grade is an important transition point in a student’s education. Students are managing greater independence, more challenging coursework and new expectations while building the habits that will carry them into high school.
Chronic absence at this age can be an early sign that a student is struggling academically, socially or personally. An indicator is not a prediction. It is a signal that families and schools have an opportunity to provide support early.
Regular attendance helps students keep pace with their classes, strengthen relationships with teachers and classmates, and remain connected to the activities that make school engaging.
If your student is experiencing an attendance barrier, please contact their school. Together, we can help them regain momentum and remain on the path toward graduation.

Over the next several weeks, Euclid City Schools will share factual information to help our community understand Issue 5, the district’s proposed 6.75-mill continuing operating levy on the November 3 ballot.
The series will explain what is being proposed, why the district is seeking new operating revenue, what the levy would cost property owners and what could be affected without additional revenue.
Issue 5 would generate approximately $6.87 million annually for day-to-day school operations. The estimated cost is $19.67 per month for each $100,000 of property value.

One in four Ohio students is chronically absent, but that number represents more than a statistic. It represents valuable time away from instruction, classmates, teachers and school activities.
Chronic absenteeism means missing at least 10% of the school year, which can be as little as two to three days each month. The absences do not need to be consecutive, and both excused and unexcused absences count toward the total.
We know that every absence has a story. Our goal is to work alongside families, identify barriers and provide support before missed time begins affecting a student’s progress.
If your family is experiencing challenges with regular attendance, please contact your child’s school. Together, we can help every student remain connected and moving forward.

Today, on the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, Euclid Schools joins our nation in remembering the nearly 3,000 lives lost in the terrorist attacks in New York City, at the Pentagon and aboard Flight 93.
We honor the courage of the first responders, service members and everyday people who acted with extraordinary bravery. We also recognize the families and communities whose lives were forever changed.
September 11 is observed as Patriot Day and the National Day of Service and Remembrance. As we help a new generation understand this important chapter in our nation’s history, may we continue to demonstrate the unity, compassion and service that brought Americans together in the days that followed.
Twenty-five years later, we remember. We honor. We will never forget.

Reading opens the door to learning in every subject. 📚
In the early grades, students build foundational skills such as recognizing words, developing vocabulary and understanding what they read. As they progress through school, they increasingly rely on those skills to follow directions, solve math problems, explore science, understand history and learn independently.
Reading success also builds confidence. When students can understand and engage with what they are learning, they are better prepared to participate in class, express their ideas and take on new challenges.
These skills develop through consistent instruction and practice. Regular attendance gives students access to each step in that learning process and allows teachers to recognize when additional support may be needed.
Every day in school supports a student’s progress. EVERY PANTHER, EVERY DAY. 💙💛

September sets the tone for the entire school year. 📚
Missing a day here and there may not seem like much, but absences can add up quickly. Establishing strong routines now helps students stay connected to their learning, teachers and classmates throughout the year.
Families can help by preparing for school the night before, maintaining consistent bedtime and morning routines, scheduling appointments outside school hours when possible and developing a backup transportation plan.
We understand that illnesses, emergencies and other challenges happen. If your family is experiencing a barrier to regular attendance, please contact your child’s school so we can help.
Let’s start strong and keep the momentum going. EVERY PANTHER, EVERY DAY. 💙💛

Due to the Severe Thunderstorm Warning and Tornado Warning issued by the National Weather Service, Open House activities at Euclid High School, Memorial Options Center, and the Early Learning Village are ending immediately.
Anyone currently inside our buildings has been advised to remain inside and take shelter until conditions are safe.
If you have not yet arrived at one of our Open Houses, please do not travel to the building. Your safety is our priority.

One in four Ohio students misses more than 10% of the school year. But what does that mean?
Chronic absenteeism means missing at least 10% of required instructional time during the school year, or approximately two to three days per month. Both excused and unexcused absences count toward that total because either type results in missed classroom time.
Chronic absenteeism is different from truancy. Truancy is a legal term based specifically on unexcused absences, while chronic absenteeism is a measure schools use to recognize when a student may need additional support.
The goal is not to blame students or families. It is to recognize when absences are adding up and help address challenges before students fall behind. If your family is experiencing barriers to regular attendance, please contact your child’s school. We’re here to help.

Fathers, grandfathers, uncles, brothers, mentors and father figures, we want you to walk with us! 💙💛
On Thursday, September 17, Euclid Schools will join schools across Northeast Ohio for the 21st Annual Fathers Walk, an initiative that celebrates the important role fathers and positive male role models play in the lives and education of our students.
The idea is simple: start the day by walking your student to school and showing them that their education matters. Fathers Walk also serves as a reminder that being present, involved and supportive can make an impact far beyond one morning.
We look forward to seeing our Panther families walking together on September 17! 🐾
