We are excited to announce a new attendance incentive for seniors, fully sponsored by community partner Premier Automotive!
For the 2024-25 school year, one senior in Jefferson Parish Schools with perfect attendance will have the chance to win a brand-new Nissan Versa. This initiative aims to encourage seniors to prioritize attending school every day, reinforcing the importance of consistent school attendance for academic success and future readiness.
Program Details:
Eligibility Criteria:
- The student must be a senior with 18 or more credits and be on track to graduate in May 2025.
- The student must achieve perfect attendance for the entire 2024-25 school year.
- Perfect attendance means zero absences, with the exception of documented bus-related absences that are verified as excused. Bus-related absences that are verified as excused are the only exemption for the perfect attendance criteria. No other exceptions are permitted.
Prize:
An in-person drawing will take place in late spring of 2025. All eligible students will be invited to the drawing and must be present to win the car. More information will be provided closer to the date.
