At Meade County Schools, attendance is about more than being present. It is about belonging, responsibility, and the relationships that shape students every day.
In a new student-led video, students from across the district share why showing up to school matters to them. Their voices highlight something powerful: school is not just a place for academics, but a place where friendships form, confidence grows, and future opportunities begin.
Throughout the video, students speak honestly about what they gain from being at school. Some talk about seeing their friend. Others reflect on responsibility, teamwork, and how each day of learning builds toward what comes next. One message stands out clearly: even if attendance has not always been perfect, today is a great day to start.
Meade County Schools encourages all students and families to make attendance a priority and to remember that showing up matters because every student belongs.
We’re better when you’re here.
