Family Engagement & Attendance

Berrien Springs Public Schools has identified Improving student attendance as one of our main goals.  Our school district is working with families to share the importance of daily attendance and to address any underlying problems that lead to absenteeism.  By building positive relationships and working together as a community, we can focus on reducing absenteeism and keeping kids in our schools.
