Williamstown Elementary will be recognized at the October 24 Board of Education Meeting for GSA scores. Keep up the great work parents! Just an FYI about attendance ratings... When the state looks at chronic absenteeism, they consider any child who misses more than 18 days in a school year chronically absent. It does not matter whether the absences are excused or unexcused.

Check out the news section of our web page for an article on school attendance. Everyday matters.
