City of Bradenton Announces Two Special Proclamations for September
The City of Bradenton is proud to announce two important proclamations this September, spotlighting both the value of education and the dedication of the city's workforce. Mayor Gene Brown has officially declared September 2024 as Attendance Awareness Month, while also designating September 1st as Building and Code Staff Appreciation Day.
Attendance Awareness Month: Making Every Day Count
September 2024 has been proclaimed Attendance Awareness Month, emphasizing the critical role regular school attendance plays in a child's academic success. Partnering with The Suncoast Campaign for Grade-Level Reading, the City of Bradenton is committed to raising awareness about the adverse effects of chronic absenteeism.
Throughout the month, the city will collaborate with local organizations to promote initiatives that encourage consistent attendance. Community members are encouraged to support these efforts by spreading the word and participating in events aimed at reducing absenteeism. Let’s make every school day count for our children’s future.
Building and Code Staff Appreciation Day: Honoring the Guardians of Public Safety
In addition to focusing on education, the City of Bradenton is also taking time to recognize the hard work and dedication of its Building and Code staff. September 1st, 2024, has been proclaimed Building and Code Staff Appreciation Day, a day to honor those who ensure the safety and security of Bradenton's infrastructure.
These often unsung heroes are responsible for reviewing building plans, inspecting construction sites, and making sure that all structures within the city meet safety standards. Their meticulous attention to detail ensures that Bradenton remains a safe and vibrant community.
Community Encouraged to Participate
As September approaches, the City of Bradenton invites all residents to join in these efforts, whether by supporting educational initiatives or showing appreciation for the Building and Code staff. These proclamations highlight the city’s commitment to fostering a safe, supportive, and thriving community.
Let’s come together to honor these important efforts and the people who make Bradenton a great place to live, work, and learn!
