Hello!

I hope that you are all having an amazing summer!  I don’t know about you, but it is going way too fast for me.  I hope to have a school supply list up soon so you can start preparing for the next school year.  I have already seen some sales here and there.  Also, don’t forget about the upcoming pool party at North Shore on August 4th.  I hope to see all of you there!

I just wanted to remind everyone to try to do all they can to avoid the summer slide!  Students lose a lot of knowledge when they don’t practice over the summer.  Please be sure your children are reading this summer.  I have been monitoring IXL and have only seen 3 or 4 students log in and practice their math skills.  Even 30 minutes a week would be so helpful!  Also, please encourage your children to write this summer.  Writing in a journal or writing letters to friends or family members would be great practice!

Enjoy the rest of your summer.  I look forward to seeing you in a few weeks!
