Hoyne Happenings
Hello Families!
Happy Summer! What a great year we had at Pembroke. We had many firsts including the addition of adaptive sports, our amazing eLab, and the first year of Junior Kindergarten at Pembroke. It was a year of incredible growth and learning that culminated in fantastic celebrations last week. In particular, I want to congratulate all of the 5th graders and wish them the best of luck in middle school. We are so proud of each and every one of them.
As we enter summer, our office will have shortened hours from 9 am - 3 pm. The office will be closed beginning June 25th through August 5th. We look forward to connecting with all of you again in August!

Summer Learning Game Board
Your child will be coming home with this summer learning game board this week. If your child completes the activities and crosses them off, they can turn them into the office in the fall and receive a special prize.
