Violet Summer Information 2023

We wish our Violet families a fun, safe, and relaxing summer! We also want to remind parents that students will benefit greatly by keeping their math and reading skills sharp over the summer. Students can continue to work on these skills by using iReady and Zearn for reading and math. They can access these through ClassLink. Please see instructions below in the message from PLSD Technology.

Let's continue to learn this summer! Please see the attachment and links below for some summer learning resources.

Accessing ClassLink from Home

Students can access many district programs through an app/website called ClassLink. Below are directions for logging into ClassLink as well as other district-approved programs on an iPad, Chromebook, or a computer while at home.

Programs available through July 31st: iReady, Zearn, BrainPop, Sora. Please see the flyer below for directions.

Check out this awesome link filled with summer activities for students! It's a treasure trove of fun and engaging ideas tailored specifically to your child's grade level during the 2022-23 school year. And guess what? The document is available in not just English, but also French, Nepali, and Spanish! How cool is that?

We want to share some resources to those families of students entering 3rd grade. Please see the information below about 3rd Grade Ohio State Testing.
