Welcome Back to the Fourth Quarter!

The Clear View staff is excited to welcome students and families back to school on Monday, April 7 for the start of the fourth and final quarter of the year. We hope you and your loved ones had a fun and relaxing break. Monday, April 7 will be a *minimum day for all TK – 6th grade students. We are looking forward to seeing you all back at school on Tuesday morning!

*TK dismissal at 1:52 PM; K-6th Grade dismissal at 2:07 PM

Attendance Matters

School attendance matters! As we begin the home stretch of the school year, consistent daily attendance will be critical for every student. This quarter is the final opportunity for student to receive instruction and demonstrate their mastery of grade level content on local and state assessments.  Let’s join together to support our student by ensuring they come to school on time and ready to learn every day.

Attendance Data

Our daily attendance goal for the school year is 97% attendance. Over the first three quarters, we have had 95.55% daily attendance (+ 0.4% from this point last year); last quarter our daily attendance was 94.45% (- 0.41% from quarter 3 last year).

Over the past few years we have made steady improvement in our average daily attendance and our chronic absence rate. The graph below shows our reduction in chronic absenteeism at Clear View over the past three school years. Great job, Voyagers!

Please continue to help us in our effort to increase daily attendance; we know positive attendance greatly benefits students’ education. We appreciate your support and look forward to seeing students back on campus this week!

Traffic Reminders

We want to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding during arrival and dismissal. As you know, we have many vehicles that access our parking lot and drop-off/pick-up areas each morning and afternoon.

General Drop-Off/Pick-Up Procedures:

  • Please pull to the curb for drop-off and pick-up to avoid having students walking near moving vehicles.
  • Continue to move as far forward as possible as you work your way through the line and pick up your child. This helps the line continue to move forward.
  • Please do not park in the pick-up/drop-off zone or leave your car unattended in these areas to pick up your child.
  • The bus zone (pictured here) is designated for buses only; please do not park in this area or double park in the bus zone.
  • We encourage families to walk or carpool to school whenever possible. This helps reduce the number of cars driving to campus daily.

Kinder Lot:

We understand the need for many families to park during arrival and dismissal in order to drop-off and/or pick-up their child. As you know, parking in the kinder lot is limited.

  • It is essential that everyone follows parking lot regulations and refrains from parking along red curbs, unmarked parking spots, and in the drop-off/pick-up area. This will allow traffic to flow quickly and student and families to safely enter and leave campus in this area.
  • We encourage the use of the Terra Nova Park parking lot or the surrounding neighborhood for families dropping off and picking up students hand to hand at the TK/Kinder area.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation during our drop-off and dismissal time.  We also appreciate you modeling appropriate and courteous behavior for our Voyagers at all times.
