Dear Parents,

After having a long conversation with Mr. Woods, we have decided that due to my absence for the last quarter, the students failing Reading in Grades 5, 6, 7, 8 will only be recommended to attend Summer School, rather than required to attend. The same will hold true for students in Grades 7 & 8 grade who are failing Social Studies.

This is not to say that I do not feel that your child will not benefit from attending Summer School, because in order to fail a subject for the year, the student must have been failing most of the year. But I will leave the decision up to you, their parents. This week, I will be returning all of the work that the children have completed this last quarter. I will also be sending home their exams, and work from the first three quarters.  If I recommend your child for Summer School in either Reading or Social Studies and you would like to speak to me concerning this, I will be at school on Monday, 6/25  from 8:00- 12:00, which is Summer School registration. 

I wish all of you a safe and enjoyable summer! Make sure that you encourage your child (ren) to read, because reading is the foundation of all other subjects.

Sincerely,
Donna Toscano Larios
