o   Kinder Lit Lab is for newly enrolled Kindergarten students. The Lit Lab is a four-week program that aims to get our students Kindergarten ready for the classroom. Certified teachers and a paraprofessional will be assigned to each class which will focus on routine and a positive learning experience for incoming students. There are 15 seats available at each elementary school for this program.

o   Each student in grades K-5 will be provided with a summer Think Stretch workbook, which will provide weekly math, reading, science, social studies, and STEM activities. Throughout the summer, there will be five check-in events, which will be opportunities for all elementary students to come together to celebrate summer (Kona Ice, bounce house, petting farms, fun and games) and to show their teachers the progress they’ve made within their summer workbook.
