Through Every Day Matters – and the new online Parent Connect site – you can find what you need to help keep students on track and in school. Parent Connect helps moms, dads, and guardians be full partners in their children’s education. Parent Connect also is a way for families to find school and community resources. It’s a source of useful tips and guides.

Every Day Matters

Student Attendance Matters
Student that miss two or more days of school a month are at a greater risk for a number of negative long-term consequences such as being more likely to experience poverty, diminished mental and physical health, and involvement in the criminal justice system as an adult. Trenton Public School District is invested in the educational and socio/emotional outcomes of all students. As a district, we have to ensure that we are going above and beyond to provide the essential tools that will support students attending school daily. Each minute of instruction matters, and communicating why it matters will help students to value the pursuit of a higher education or career of choice.

Attendance Works
Attendance Works champions local, state and federal policies that promote taking daily attendance and using multiple measures, including chronic absence, to trigger support for students and families, and to inform program and policy decisions.
