Our daily attendance rate is 95%, with 18% of students identified as chronically absent. At Cottonwood, we focus on relationships…
and consistent, high-quality instruction. We use Capturing Kids? Hearts practices, protect daily WIN time with data-based groups, and post clear proficiency scales, learning targets, and success criteria so students know what they are learning and how to show it. Our Parent Action Council (PAC) is highly involved, partnering with us on family events, staff recognition, and school improvement projects.
