Attend to Achieve (A2A)

Attend to Achieve (A2A) is working to promote and encourage school attendance for students’ learning and overall academic success. One of A2A’s goal is to be preventative and assist schools in making sure that students participate, engage, and succeed in this virtual world by removing and addressing barriers early in the school year for better chances of success.

In order to achieve our goal and be preventative, we are asking for your list of high-risk students who had trouble engaging and participating during the last few months of last school year of virtual learning. A2A is working to ensure that we contact and support families before it’s too late. We can only do this with your help and support.  Please send your list to  naomi.tolentino@kckps.org and feel free to send your questions and concerns as well.

Also, in order to provide interpreter support during FA, please let us know (same email) who is the main contact for this at your building.
