Dear 5th Grade Families,
We wish you a relaxing and safe summer and remind you the importance of reading 20 minutes daily. Althoughit is summer, students should continue to learn and grow academically in order to retain what they have learnedover the course of this year. These activities are due on September 7, 2021 the first day of school, and willcount as the first grades in both ELA and Social Studies for Cycle 1. Other activities for the summer readinghave already been crafted making it especially important that you read the text in its entirety. It is alsoimportant to note that last September the district assessed the students based on the summer reading. Beingprepared in September will allow your student to be amazingly successful.
Be Well,

Sin embargo, fue en esta escuela donde Charlesaprendió Braille y descubrió cómo perseguir su interés por lamúsica. A medida que crecía, escribió arreglos en Braille demelodías para bandas y, junto con sus compañeros de escuela,comenzó a tocar en funciones públicas. Después de la muertede su madre cuando tenía 15 años, Charles dejó la escuela yaceptó trabajos tocando con bandas de baile locales.
