As part of our Beloved Community continuous attendance improvement campaign, the Oceanside Unified School District rolled out its “Show Up and Shine” event series at every elementary school across the district. These events were designed to make students feel celebrated for attending school and reinforce the message that “We want you here every day!”
Students received a red carpet welcome, enjoyed lively music, bubble machines, and high fives, all in a positive, high-energy environment that encourages attendance. Messages like “You never know what you’re missing!” will remind students of the value of being present at school.
