At Milwaukee High School of the Arts, attendance is important to success! EVERY DAY COUNTS!
Students can only learn by actively engaging in lessons. Poor attendance lowers grades, limits National Honor Society participation, and reduces chances for college admission. Parents and guardians will receive an automated phone call for absent or tardy students so we can work together for their continued success.
