✏️Come to School ✏️ First Lady Cathy Justice has a message for everyone! School is a place of learning, growth, excitement, and more, but only if students are present! Attendance is important as it allows students to remain engaged in the learning process and develop confidence in their skills. The Communities In Schools initiative helps accomplish this by surrounding students with a community of support. 🍎 Learn more 👉 #WVEd #CISWV
