We continue to be excited about the staff who will be joining us! We have truly been overwhelmed with the teacher applications for this program. At this point we have hired all but two of our teaching positions. I continue to be excited about the middle school teaching teams which are being created for our incoming students!
During our 'Spring Celebrations' many parents indicated that they wanted to be involved with our PTSA during this coming school year. We have set up a meeting for next Tuesday, June 3rd at 5:30 p.m. This will be a great opportunity for our PTSA to set their goals for this coming school year! Ms. Sara Bravo, Curriculum Director, has sent out invitations via email to all parents who indicated an interest in being a part of this parent group.
As our students transition into summer activities I ask that all parents encourage their children to read a minimum of thirty minutes each day. At Julia Landon each student is required to complete two summer reading books. Please see the link from our home page for additional information on this item. Many parents have called asking what other books we would recommend for students to read over the summer. We have now posted a recommended reading list for students to work from after they have completed their required summer reading books.
I hope everyone has a great last few days of school! It is hard to believe, but in just a few months we will all be opening Julia Landon for the 2008 - 2009 school year!
