June Wrap Up


Final Chapter - The Last Hoorah!

June Wrap-up
It has been a month to remember. Although the weather has not cooperated in many cases, Stonehedge was still able to squeeze in several fun end of the year activities. I have included some incredible photos of our students wrapping up the year in style. I hope you enjoy them.

Read, Read and Read Some More!
I have mentioned countless times, the importance of reading each day. This holds true for vacation as well. Summer regression is real and as a family, you must make a commitment to ensure that reading remains a priority. Reading can be one of the many fun activities children fill their summer time with. There are many websites available with suggested reading lists. The Association for Library Services to Children (ALSC) has suggested reading lists created for kids - by kids (click here to go to the K-2 reading list). Our very own librarian, Mrs. Abbott suggested this reading list as a starting point. Our local libraries have programs for all ages and provide structured reading programs for your children to join. Please curl up with your child and take the opportunity to share some of your own childhood favorites. I'll bet they will enjoy them as much as you did!  

Send Me an Old Fashion Postcard
As I walked around to classrooms this morning, many students shared the highlights of their summer plans and I must say that I'm excited for the adventures that await them. I told students that I would include mailing information so they could send me a postcard while on vacation. I would love to catch a glimpse of these experiences. So, if interested, please send mail to:
                
                Stonehedge Elementary School
                Mrs. Keevil
                400 Sanderson Drive
                Camillus, NY 13031

 

This has been an incredible year and it has been my honor and pleasure to watch each child grow academically and socially. I wish you an enjoyable summer filled with many opportunities to make memories with family and friends. See you in September!
