ON TIME, ALL DAY, EVERY DAY

April

Spring has sprung, school is fun. Be on time.

Being late to school may lead to poor attendance. Attending school regularly and getting there on time helps children feel better about school, and themselves.

Abril

La primavera ha llegado, la escuela es divertida. Llega a tiempo.

Llegar tarde a la escuela puede causar una asistencia deficiente. Asistir a la escuela regularmente y llegar a tiempo ayuda que los niños se sientan mejor acerca de la escuela y de ellos mismos.
