June Newsletter
May 27th, 2026

From the Principal
Parents and Guardians:
Over the summer, please make sure that your child spends time reading. Recommended reading lists for each grade level can be found at our library website at
https://clinton.wscschools.org/library/summer-reading
Your child may enjoy participating in reading activities offered at the public library or book stores! Try to take advantage of the many parks, museums, and activities available in Western New York. The following websites offer great ideas for families: http://www.visitbuffaloniagara.com/things-to-do/family-fun/;
Keeping a summer journal detailing what he or she read, or did, is a great way for your child to practice writing. Children are encouraged to bring summer journals with them when school starts if they would like to share.
Interested in summer learning for your child? The West Seneca Community Education Program offers many opportunities for enrichment, the offerings are extensive and too many to list here. Catalogues were sent out, but if you need more information, go to:

You will receive an email informing you when Parent Portal is open and ready for you to check your child's assigned teacher. Please – no phone calls. No changes in class assignments will be made.
On behalf of the faculty and staff, I wish you a safe, healthy, and enjoyable summer.
Mrs. K. McCartan
