The Caddo Parish School Board has announced its first Attendance and Resource Fair of the school year! The Attendance and Resource Fair will take place TODAY, Tuesday, Oct. 22 at the Broadmoor Baptist Church from 11 am to 5:30 pm. Parents and students may attend these fairs; however, it is important that the parent comes!

Caddo Schools Attendance Department staff members will be available to address attendance concerns. During this time, parents will be allowed to write a parent note for three (3) of their child’s unexcused absences, and submit doctor’s excuses (which can be excused at any time during the school year). Also, there will be several community resources available for families who may be dealing with mental health issues, Shreveport Job Corps, Caddo’s Parent Resource Department, McKinney Vento (Homeless), Gingerbread House, and other Mental Health agencies approved by Caddo Parish Public Schools.

The Caddo Parish School Board will host five attendance support fairs throughout the school year.
