Happy Summer!
K4 Meet and Greet
Open House (Food Trucks)
Our annual Open House will be on Wednesday, August 28th from 4:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. We will have three photographers in the gym to take school pictures. If you miss our Open House or you are unable to get ready in time for school pictures, we have another day set in October.
This day also allows you to tour the school, meet your teacher, and drop off school supplies.
I am additionally excited to let you know that we will have food trucks here on this evening with our lunch tables set outside on the playground. This will be a great opportunity to socialize, see old friends, or make new ones. The trucks are also donating a portion back to to the school, so you will also be helping raise money for our school! More information on which food trucks will be attending the event will be sent out as we get closer.

Summer Math Challenge
For the past three years, the Summer Math Challenge has been something we did at Glenwood to help students engage in math related thinking over the summer months. The challenge is very simple and includes a variety of ways to meet the challenge - by playing games using cards or dice, playing board games, number puzzles, online games, reading counting books, counting objects or any other activity that gets our math brains working - at least 20 times over the summer. Parents just need to initial the date on the Summer Math Challenge Calendar.
New this year, Edgewood Elementary has challenged us to see which school can get more students to complete the challenge! It's their first time doing the challenge so Glenwood has an advantage. In fall, return the initialed calendar to your teacher. We will have a simple celebration for those who've completed the challenge! We'll announce the winning school in September.
Most of all, this should be a fun time doing things we maybe never even realized were mathematical. The website below supports the Summer Math Challenge but it is NOT necessary to have a computer to participate. This site is also accessible on each elementary building's web page under Learning Resources. Most of all, have fun!
