Yearbooks/Summer

Yearbooks will be given to students who have paid this Monday. We will have a yearbook signing party Tuesday afternoon in our own classroom. We were going to do this on Wednesday, but it is jam packed with fun sports events. Please write your child's name in their yearbook before sending it back to school. Thanks

PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, work with your child over the summer. It is soooo important. I would love for them to be reading and writing everyday! Also, you can purchase a summer workbook, which I have links posted in an earlier comment to get one online. OR you can go to CM School Supply store on Van Buren and buy a Summer Bridge workbook. This will be so beneficial for your student!

Class Party/ Kinder promotion

We will be having a class party on Wednesday June 25th. I will be providing pizza and juice for the students. I would suggest you send additional snacks for your student that day to go with the pizza, particular any healthy snacks (carrots, fruit, etc.). No student needs to bring a full lunch unless they do not want pizza.

Also, we will be doing a year book party that day. Please have your student bring their year books to be signed by their classmates. If you did not purchase a year book, send your student with a notebook they can have signed by their friends. PLEASE LABEL ALL YEARBOOKS with  your child's name. Thank you

Kindergarten Graduation is Thursday at 10:30am. It is a free dress day, I suggest they dress to impress. :)
We will be serving lunch to students who order from the school, please send a small lunch or snack if they do not receive lunch from the school.

All of my students will be riding on bus 2. Some parents have signed up to ride the bus. However, space was limited on bus 2 and some might be on other buses (most likely with another child).
If you would like to ride the bus there is space still available, but mostly, not on bus 2.  Contact Brandi Williams if you would like to ride the bus. bwilliams@reachleadershipacademy.org

Summer Workbooks

If you would like to purchase something to work on over the summer for 15-30 minutes a day to keep your student on target for First grade, I found a site that sells them! I highly recommend that you make a specific plan to help keep your student from losing valuable information over the summer. And please plan on reading on a regular basis.

Even if you do not purchase these workbooks, please go online to find worksheets for Kindergarten or First grade to work on over the summer!! And please have them practice writing sentences, stories, and/or letters!!

 Also, you can find valuable workbooks at places like Costco and Sam's Club. Please do not let summer go by without working with your child!
