A Message from the Superintendent
Dear Parents/Guardians:
Summer is rapidly approaching and I know that everyone is excited about this school
year coming to an end soon.
However, the summer months are crucial to continuing your child’s academic success.
While we want your child to enjoy their summer, we have developed a variety of
learning activities so that they can learn with the support of our staff and valued
community partners, and have fun too.
This brochure is designed to provide you and your child with an overview of all of
our summer learning and enrichment activities. In some instances, we have created
programs requiring your child’s participation where their attendance and participation
will be mandatory based on their grades, assessment scores, and attendance. Although
mandatory program students will receive a personalized letter from their principals,
Roger León you must still register using the provided link.
Superintendent
In-depth descriptions of the programs are included in this brochure and I once again
encourage you to take advantage of these offerings. To do so, please complete the
online registration by May 23, 2022. If you have any questions or concerns, please
contact your child’s teacher or principal.
These summer experiences promise to be filled with engaging learning activities that
will enrich and strengthen your child’s education and continue their path to success
for next school year and beyond!
Sincerely,
Superintendent León
