Monroe Public Schools
Annual count day is October 5
September 30, 2016

“Pupil Count Day,” where all public schools in Michigan tally the number of students attending their schools, is next Wednesday, October 5.     

     It always is important to be in school for learning but on October 5, the financial implications are important, too, because each student translates into state funding for the district where they attend. 

     Parents are encouraged to make every effort to ensure their children are in school on Pupil Count Day.

     In these days of tight economic times, count information is critical to all state public schools districts, including Monroe Public Schools.  Michigan schools have two count days per calendar year.  The fall count – which is next week – represents 90 percent of state funding.  The second count day, which will be in February 2017, represents 10 percent of state funding for a district.
