New attendance notification begin April 9

Dear Manchester School District families,

Our district attendance procedures will change beginning on Monday, April 9.  We know you understand and believe in the importance of school attendance. Our schools are committed to accurately monitoring and reporting attendance information. We also want to communicate more efficiently with parents and guardians about their children’s attendance.

Beginning on Monday, April 9, if your child is absent from school or tardy to school you will receive a phone call and/or email notification through our SchoolMessenger system at 11:05 a.m. each day. The attendance message will go to the phone number and/or email address we have on file for your child(ren). If you wish to update your contact information, please notify your child(ren)'s school(s).

We want to ensure you will not be surprised by this process and will understand the purpose of the notification. We thank you for your support in advance of this new effort.  

Sincerely,

Dr. Bolgen Vargas
Superintendent of Schools
