Dyer Summer Learning Program
Moving Over the Summer?
Gwinnett County Policy:
In order to enroll in another Gwinnett County School you must bring a Withdrawal Form and a Change of Status Form from your current school. You will not be able to register at the new school without those two forms.
Please send in a written notice that you will not be returning next year so the documents can be prepared for you.
Take 5 Summer Reading Program 2018
What does the research say about summer reading?
“Regardless of ethnicity, socioeconomic level, or previous achievement, children who read four or more books over the summer fare better on reading-comprehension tests in the fall than their peers who read one or no books over the summer.” Jimmy Kim, Journal of Education for Students Placed at Risk
Dyer Elementary Media Center invites students to borrow up to five books of their choice. In order to check out books for the summer, students must meet the following criteria:
· Be a student at Dyer Elementary School for the upcoming 2018-2019 school year.
· Return all materials borrowed during the current school year. (All books are due Wednesday, May 9.)
· Have a clean library record: All books and magazines returned. All lost books & fines paid.
· Bring the signed permission form below to the Media Center to check out books during May 16 – May 22, 2018.
· Return all TAKE 5 books to Dyer Media Center by August 7, 2018.
You can refresh your Take 5 books dates: June 12th 10:00am – 12:00pm or June 26th 10:00am -- 12:00 pm. (Mrs. Langford will be at Dyer on those days and times to return/exchange books for children participating in TAKE 5.)
If you would like for your child to participate, look for the permission form in their Friday folder. Or you can download and print one here.
Mark your calendars for these upcoming events!
