Mission: Inspiring a diverse school community to be passionate and empathetic learners.
Summer Reading
Please remember to turn in your summer reading log. Readers will receive some great prizes! If you lost your reading log, any piece of paper will do. Just be sure it has your child's full name, current grade, and current teacher along with titles of books read for PreK, K, and 1 and minutes read for grades 2, 3, and 4.
After School - Fun Fluency Spanish Program
New Fun Fluency Immersion Spanish!
Join Fun Fluency on an afterschool aventura of learning a new language—the way your brain was meant to learn it! Don’t miss out on your child’s window of opportunity to learn a language with ease at a young age. Classes are taught by native speakers and experienced/certified Spanish teachers.
Students learn Spanish naturally through immersion, movement, games, songs, rhythm, reading, and acting out/listening to stories. Our storytelling-based method focuses on long-term retention, not just memorization. Students will quickly see how fun and easy it is to understand, read, and write in Spanish while being immersed in language, play, and laughter. This opportunity introduces your student to the many advantages of becoming bilingual and culturally aware at a young age. Check out all the fun we’re having with fluency at www.funfluency.com.
Class tuition incudes a workbook, take-home and online activities for continued practice at home. Class size is limited!
