Perfect Attendance
This is an organization I'm really proud and excited to be part of! Friday, we completed the 6 week test run of the program. Students at Woodrow Wilson High school were able to accumulate points via attendance & improved grades (think AA Frequent Flyer Points) to redeem for gifts, services and tickets - thanks Mark Cuban! The response was tremendous from the students, teachers and sponsors. The whole thing closed down with a live performance by Orlando Salinas and a visit from the WFAA Channel 8 news crew. It was a blast to go back to HS again. Even though I was bit out of fashion... (IE: never wear a Banana Republic jacket with a Hurley skater t-shirt!). The best news? DISD officials reported an increase of attendance of almost 3% for the short beta-test! Whoo Hoo! Congrats to Stewart Lytle the program's founder! Looks like we're back in for additional schools this fall. :D
Bueller? Bueller?
'PA' Increased attendance at Woodrow Wilson by almost 3%!!
