September is Attendance Awareness Month.

 September is Attendance Awareness Month.  Please take a few minutes to share the following presentation with your homeroom.  It will require a tiny amount of reading but I promise that it is painless.  As you all are aware, attendance is a HUGE issue at Bosse.  The counseling department greatly appreciates your help and support as you discuss the importance of students attending school every day.

Attendance Matters Presentation

ALICE & Homecoming

 Please have these slides pulled up on Friday at the beginning of Enrichment.

• ALICE Lockdown Slides
• Homecoming Slides

Also,

• Do not allow any students to leave prior to the start of Enrichment.
• Hold all Enrichment passes until both the drill and Spirit Week announcements are complete.
• Once we announce for doors to be locked, any students in the hallways or bathrooms must report to Kristin Anderson in room 101.
• If you do not have an Enrichment class, you may be assigned to support a substitute's class.
• ALL staff should follow along with the slides in the ALICE drill, regardless if you have students in your room. ALL must be knowledgeable.
• There may be additional officers in the building to assist with the drill.

In addition to Football Homecoming being next week, the counselors are celebrating College GO! Week, September 25-29.

 In addition to Football Homecoming being next week, the counselors are celebrating College GO! Week, September 25-29. 

The goal is to help high school seniors navigate the college admissions process and ensure each student submits at least one admissions application. Many Indiana universities join in the celebration by taking away their college application fees for a day so that students can apply for free.

We are excited to share the Spirit Dress Days and other events for College Go Week and Football Homecoming Week this year.
