Students: Because we know that reading is the most important skill you can develop, your teachers, principal and I encourage you to read this summer.
Parents: We recognize that family involvement in education is crucial for children to succeed in school and life. Please read with your children daily. Spend time discussing the stories, characters, places, events and words. Encourage your children to read on their own. Share conversation over meals and other times the family is together. Children's listening vocabulary enhances their reading vocabulary.
Each student who has read at least 10 appropriate grade level books or 1,000 pages during the summer will be given a certificate of accomplishment when they return to the school in the fall.
