Families,

Thank you for another wonderful school year. It has been such a pleasure to watch your learners grow! We are wishing you a summer full of adventure and laughter. To our rising fourth graders – good luck at Center School next year! We know you are going to continue to do great things. To the rest of our students – we can’t wait to see you again in August.

Don’t forget to check out the Summer Reading and Math Challenges on our district webpage: Summer Reading & Math

Fondly,

Joey & Andrea

A PAWsitive office referral is submitted when a staff member recognizes a student who is going above and beyond to exemplify one of our three school rules - taking care of others, taking care of self, & taking care of things.

Congratulations to the most recent recipients of the Order Of The Cheetah. We appreciate all that you do!

Literacy News- Summer Reading Program

Memorial School is so excited to kick off our summer reading program!

As a school community we applaud all you have done to support your child’s engagement and learning this school year. As we approach the gifts of summer, and a well-deserved break, it will be critically important for your learner to continue to grow as an independent reader, and to recognize reading as one of the many positive life choices they can make. In an effort to maintain students’ level of reading independence and prevent summer reading loss, we are encouraging all students to set goals to continue their reading journey over the summer.

For K-3rd Graders

Next week in library classes, readers will be discussing goals and receiving their summer reading log. This log should be returned in the fall and readers who turn it in will be invited to participate in a special reading celebration.

In the classroom, students also had a special visit from public children’s librarians, Ms. Christine and Ms. Jondahl, to hear about all the exciting things the East Hampton Public Library has to offer this summer. We hope that you take advantage of the amazing programing and book selection available to enhance your child’s summer reading experience. Also make sure to check out our Summer Read Aloud Series schedule that is back at the public library this year!

Dear Memorial Families,

As we near the end of the school year, we want to make you aware of the various opportunities the district will be offering over the summer months in order to support your learner’s continued engagement with mathematics. We recognize there are many summer activities for students to support their needs. With participation in any of the activities, your child will be able to maintain their math skills over the summer months. Your support in this initiative is greatly appreciated.
