A MESSAGE FROM MR. VINSON
I hope each of you is enjoying the summer break and making lasting memories together with your families! We are about halfway through our summer, and we are working hard as we make plans for an exciting 2024-2025 school year. Please be sure to reference the upcoming issues of the Inside the Pride newsletter as you will find more and more information being added each week to help you navigate the start of the new year.
Student schedules are under development currently and will be released later this month. Please be praying for our team as we work to build the best schedule possible for your child for this new school year.
REMINDER: SUMMER READING OPPORTUNITY
There is NO REQUIRED SUMMER READING, but our team has put together a list of suggested books and resources if your child would like to continue reading over the summer. Students who read 3 books from the suggested list will receive an incentive the first week we are back in August. Check out our suggested list here.
REMINDER: SUMMER MATH HELP
Use this document to review information from Ms. Paige Whitaker, our Math Curriculum Coordinator, regarding grade level skills your child may need to work on over the summer to ensure a smooth transition for next year. These suggestions are great for parents looking to reinforce concepts over the summer or for those just looking to keep their child sharp over the break.
IN PROGRESS: SUPPLY LISTS FOR 2024-2025
We will be finalizing our supply lists in the next couple of weeks as we add any additional items needed by recently hired teachers. In the meantime, feel free to start purchasing the items already added to the list.
