Attendance
Regular, on-time attendance is one of the most important factors in student success. Even a few missed days can lead to academic and social setbacks — and those missed days quickly add up.
Families are key to building strong attendance habits. Making sure your child is in school every day, all day, lays the foundation for lifelong achievement.
Here is what absences can look like over time:
If a student misses 2+ days a month:
That’s about 20 days of school missed each year.
That’s about 30 hours of math missed.
That’s about 60 hours of reading and writing missed.
Over time, it can add up to over 1 full year of missed school by graduation.
If a student misses 4+ days a month:
That’s 40 days of school missed in a year—the equivalent of two full months of instruction.
That’s about 60 hours of math missed.
That’s about 120 hours of reading and writing missed.
Over time, it can add up to over 2 full years of missed school by graduation.
Let’s work together to make every day count — for your child’s future.
Stay Connected: Update Your Skyward Family Access Information
Keeping your contact information up to date in Skyward ensures you receive timely notifications about important topics like weather delays, school closures and urgent alerts. Each year, families are asked to complete our Student Verification process through Skyward Family Access to confirm and update student and contact details. This required verify process typically opens in early August and helps ensure you stay informed throughout the school year.
Calendar
You can always find our official district calendar at FDLsd.org/calendar. We aim to keep both the current school year calendar and, when available (typically during the winter or spring), the next year’s calendar posted to support your planning.
Please note: The calendar includes non-student days for holidays, staff professional development, academic planning and family conferences. Be sure to review it regularly to stay informed about key dates.
