Can you help us understand why it is so important?

Sure.

So, you know, I think it's very easy for people to understand how missing school in elementary school or middle or high school matters, right? Students are going to miss lessons, they'll miss content, and start to feel behind.

But it is just as important for us to work with families to have our babies, our toddlers, and our preschool students attend preschool consistently.

So, so why does it matter? Well, we know that being in school every day on time puts students of all ages on the road to success, and that begins as early as early childhood education.

And it really does help set a strong foundation.

How we begin is how we continue, right? So it sets a very strong foundation for the future.

It, it's, it's that balancing act between f- the h- safety for your health, but then the long-term impact of the having the stable school experience.
