October Count for Funding and Attendance on October 1
Dear Telluride School District Families,
With October 1 fast approaching this Wednesday, I want to take this opportunity to emphasize the importance of your student's attendance on October 1 as it is the most important day for establishing our official pupil count for funding purposes. Our district's Total Program Funding is determined based on our October Count enrollment, and the October Count is based primarily on attendance on October 1. If your student is absent on October 1, it becomes more complicated to capture their attendance for enrollment purposes in the October Count.
Certainly attendance is important every day for maximizing student learning and achievement, but we appreciate your attention to attendance on this special day.
With Gratitude,
John Pandolfo
Superintendent
Telluride R-1 School District
