We would love for our families to be more involved in the school. If you have any questions, reach out to Dr. A. 303-428-2161
The Importance of Attendance
This year, attendance is a major initiative of the school district and Flynn. We really want to keep absences to no more than 10 all year. Excused and unexcused absences have the same impact on learning - students need to be in school to learn. Let's make sure we are keeping students on track for a successful year of attendance.
