This week is another strong week of student attendance showing that our students know that #EveryDayCounts and #AttendanceMatters
We are ready to push into the final weeks of the school year to #FinishStrong with daily attendance!

At DeSoto Parish Schools, we are committed to finishing the school year strong—and student attendance plays a critical role in that success. Every day in class matters for learning, growth, and achievement.
We appreciate your partnership in this effort. If you need support with attendance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to your child’s school. Together, we can ensure every student is present, on time, and ready to learn each day.
Let’s work together to #FinishStrong and make every day count! #AttendanceMatters

Just like student-athletes signing scholarships, these students are officially signing with industry partners—launching their professional journeys with purpose and confidence.
Through our CTE paid internship program, these students have already gained valuable, hands-on experience in real-world settings. Signing Day represents the culmination of their hard work, dedication, and commitment to excellence.
We are proud to see our students living out our core values and preparing to make an impact in our community and beyond.

DeSoto families, thank you for continuing to show up and support your students each day. This week, our district maintained a 95% attendance rate, meeting our goal during a very important time in the school year.
We are now in the state LEAP testing window, and being at school every day truly makes a difference. When students are present, they feel more confident, stay in rhythm with their learning, and are better prepared. Even one missed day can mean missing valuable instruction or support.
We know this time of year can be busy, and we appreciate the effort it takes to keep students on track. Your partnership matters, and it shows in your child’s success.
Let’s continue working together to finish strong—because #AttendanceMatters and #EveryDayCounts.
