					<description><![CDATA[Glades Academy Families,

Monday, August 24 is a VERY important attendance day! It is the final day of our first 11-day count, and we need EVERY EGRET at school, on time, and ready to SOAR!

⚠️ IMPORTANT: If your child has not attended school at all during the first 10 days, it is critical that they report to school on Monday. Students who do not report may be dropped from enrollment and lose their seat. Parents would then need to reapply and join the waitlist, subject to space availability.

🏈👖 To make Monday extra special, we are having a FREE SURPRISE SPIRIT DAY!

JERSEY DAY & JEANS
📅 Monday, August 24
💰 FREE — 

Students may wear their favorite sports/team jersey with jeans and come ready to show their pride!

💚 Be Here. Be On Time. Be Ready to SOAR!
Every student. Every day. Attendance Matters!]]></description>
