Please make sure to share this information with your younger students, so that they understand the new rule.
Thank You,

MAS Attendance Policy
Hello Milan Area Schools Families,
Milan Area Schools wants to inform our students and families that we will be implementing a new/updated attendance policy. The policy implementation will begin on August 28, 2023, the first day of the 2023-2024 school.
The policy was developed by the district in conjunction with agencies from Monroe and Washtenaw Counties.
While Milan Area Schools experiences good daily student attendance on average, some of our students do meet the state’s definition of being chronically absent. Some of our students also meet the state’s definition of being truant. Excessive absences affect a student’s ability to be successful in school.
Important information about student attendance is included in the the “Milan Area Schools Attendance Policy”.
The policy includes:

Thank You,

This program will provide free breakfast and lunch to all MAS students 4 years old and older throughout the academic year!

The city of Milan, which encompasses a total of 3.4 square miles, was founded in 1831 and is located in the Southeastern Counties of Washtenaw and Monroe in the State of Michigan. Located between the cultural and commercial hubs of Ann Arbor, MI and Toledo, OH, Milan has both rural and suburban areas.
The Milan School District embraces nearly 90 square miles and serves households in both Washtenaw and Monroe Counties. The district is proud to note that its staff is made up of both veteran teachers and those new to the profession, all of whom are highly qualified. The four school buildings that comprise the Milan Area School District operate as schools-of-choice facilities and consistently enroll students from four surrounding counties. The district offers exceptional educational programs to approximately 2,000 students ranging from preschool age to grade twelve.
The community is proud of the scholastic and extracurricular accomplishments of its students. School activities serve as an important part of the overall student experience and provide social activities for the entire community.
