Summer Homework

Watch your child’s teacher messages. We do have work assigned to our students for the summer in grades 2-8. This work is a mimimal requirement that helps your child stay focused on math and reading skills.  We have found that the kids who have done the summer work come back to school a step ahead of those who do not.

In the older grades – they are required to read 3 books and do a short summary according to a 10 point guide.  They are required to do 60 minutes of math per month on Kahn Academy. These assignments do count toward their 1st grade in fall.

Parents – this is good for your kids. Please encourage them to take some time this summer to complete it.

This is a spot on Facebook for SWS parents to give away and find free uniforms.
Post uniforms the are too small or ones your kids never wear. Others might be able to use it for their kids.

Keep this link and site going all summer long.

Do Not bring bags of uniforms to school. We no longer host an exchange night as we have no place to store them.  The uniform site was successful last year. We will try for one more year.
