As we head toward the end of the school year, we want to remind everyone to please finish strong with attendance – all the way until Friday, June 23rd. We’re almost there – every day counts!

As a reminder, both June 22nd and June 23rd are early release days with dismissal starting at 1:30 PM.

Boston Music Project invites you to attend the BMP Perry End-of-Year Showcase at 10 AM on Tuesday, June 6th. The Showcase will take place in the Schoolyard (we're hoping for sun but will be in contact in the event of rain). Coffee will be served prior to the start of the show. We hope to see you there!

We are very excited to be able to send home three to four books with every returning student at the end of June to help facilitate our students continuing to read throughout the summer. We hope that these books will prove interesting and exciting – and that students will be further engaged by reading the same books alongside their classmates. Summer is long – we hope that everybody has lots of fun and enjoys time with family and friends, but we also hope that they find a way to keep up the habit of reading. It makes a huge difference when students continue to read and make progress as readers through late June, July and August. Beyond reading the books that will be sent home, we hope that students and families will make use of the public library and other great opportunities around the city to continue to foster your child’s love of reading.

Just a friendly reminder that MAP Testing will take place next week in K2 to Grade 4. MAP Testing will provide a snapshot on how your child is progressing in their reading development (as well as math development in G3 and G4). We encourage you to consider these results in concert with what teachers (and you) are seeing on a daily basis as well as the work that they are producing. MAP provides a helpful snapshot to see where students are and what next steps for learning might be; however, it’s just one brief snapshot (it’s not the “be all and end all”).

This year, spirit week will be from June 12-16. Please click the flyer below for more details!
