Julian's Progress, Goals, and Plans
School Initiatives & Events

September is Attendance Awareness Month across RSD and we're kicking things off with a district-wide challenge:
Attendance Awareness Spirit Week, September 14th-18th! Every school in the district will compete to have the best daily attendance rate all week long. The school with the highest point total by Friday wins district-wide recognition, a certificate or trophy, and a schoolwide reward!
Here's how we earn points:
-96-100% of students at school earns us 5 points each day! We want the greatest number of points so we need our Eagles here!
We want Julian to win, and the way we do that is simple: get your kids to school, on time, every day that week!
Each day also has a fun theme, so get ready to show your Eagle spirit:
-Monday, Sept 14 – Wake Up, Get Up Pajama Day: Roll out of bed and wear your favorite appropriate pajamas to school!
-Tuesday, Sept 15 – Wacky Tacky Crazy Socks Day: Show off your wackiest, most mismatched socks!
-Wednesday, Sept 16 – Wild Hair Day: Wild hair, don't care, just be here on time!
-Thursday, Sept 17 – Teamwork Thursday: Wear your favorite sports team shirt or jersey!
-Friday, Sept 18 – Fun Spirit Friday: Rep your favorite Julian Eagles gear!
Great attendance today means a brighter future tomorrow. Let's show RSD what Julian Eagles are made of! Be Kind, Be Responsible, Be Safe.

We want every student at Julian in class, every day, so they don't miss a single moment of learning. To celebrate great attendance, we're launching Free Dress Fridays again this year!
Here's how it works: if your student is present all day, arrives on time, and stays until dismissal Monday through Thursday, they earn the privilege of free dress on Friday!
Being at school on time, every day, makes a big difference. It means your child is here for every lesson, every friendship, and every chance to grow. Thank you for partnering with us to make attendance a priority!
Questions? Reach out to your student's teacher or the front office.
