Importance of School Attendance!If your child will be absent due to an appointment, it is recommended that you attain an excuse from your provider for the date and time of the visit and return the excuse to the school office. This will ensure that the absence is noted as an excused absence or tardy. Appointment cards will NOT be accepted as an excuse.
Call to report your child's daily absence by calling the school's attendance line at 662-7990. Monitor your child’s tardies and absences through the district website: http://powerschool.hssd.k12.wi.us/public/ Click here for more information about the importance of attendance from the State Superintendent's office. From Your School Board
Teamwork (noun) – the combined action of a group of people, especially when effective and efficient.
At the Howard Suamico School District, teamwork is demonstrated in many different ways. Our students participate in teamwork with athletics, music, theatre, and especially academics. Our students work together as a group, to learn, grow, and share. Teamwork is showing at Bay Harbor Elementary, where the students are preparing for the annual Fall Fest Fundraiser; Suamico Elementary is displaying teamwork at their Buddy Bench during recess; and Howard Elementary is showing their teamwork with Popcorn Fridays. Our Board of Education and administrators use teamwork to drive our mission forward. Currently, we are engaged with a Community Task Force, teaming community members with district administrators to better understand our district needs and opportunities. The goal of the Community Task Force is to make a recommendation for the Board of Education to consider. As we see every day in the Howard Suamico School District, with teamwork we can accomplish anything. If you have any questions for the Board of Education, please reach out to your team member located in this article. 2017-2018 HSSD Calendar
