September is Attendance Awareness Month!
At Demopolis City Schools, we know that every school day matters and every minute counts.
When students are in school consistently, they have more opportunities to:
✅ Learn new skills and master important concepts
✅ Build strong relationships with teachers and classmates
✅ Participate in activities, athletics, clubs, and special events
✅ Stay on track academically
✅ Build habits that lead to success beyond high school
Missing just a few days here and there can add up quickly and make it harder for students to keep up. Good attendance isn't just about being present—it’s about being part of the learning, growing, and Tiger community every day.
Parents, students, teachers, and our entire community all play an important role in making attendance a priority.
Show up. Get involved. Stay on track. Succeed!

DCS Families,
Welcome back to the 2026–2027 school year! We look forward to a successful year and know that improving student attendance is something we can accomplish by working together—our schools, our parents, and our students.
This is a message from Mr. Clark, DHS Attendance Director:
One simple step can make a big difference in keeping your child’s attendance records up to date: submit a written excuse whenever your child is absent, arrives late, or checks out early. Written excuses must be submitted within three days.
The attendance manual includes some changes this year. We encourage all families to review the updated manual by visiting www.dcsedu.com.
Remember, a simple written excuse can help prevent attendance issues and ensure your child’s records are accurate.
Let’s work together to make attendance a priority and have a great 2026–2027 school year!
Go Tigers!

🚗 Your Choices Today Can Impact Your Drive Tomorrow! 🚗
Did you know that school behavior can affect when your student is eligible to receive a learner's permit or driver's license?
Taylor's Law is an Alabama law that connects school discipline with driving privileges. Beginning at age 13, certain disciplinary actions can result in points that may delay a student's ability to obtain a permit or driver's license.
We encourage all students to:
✅ Be Respectful
✅ Be Responsible
✅ Be Ready
Positive choices in the classroom and around campus don't just help you succeed in school—they can also keep you on track for important milestones like earning your driver's license.
Take a moment to review the graphic and learn how Taylor's Law works. Working together, we can help every student make choices that lead to a bright future.
💙 Your choices today impact your future tomorrow.
