Dear Teachers and Staff,

During the past few summers, brilliant work by our educators have produced important enrichment opportunities for students. This last summer saw students engaged in the High School Musical Theater (HSMT) and the Middle School Summer Stem Academy (MSSSA).

We recognize summer as an important time to reinforce and extend school-year learning while offering enrichment activities and opportunities not available during the school year. In preparation for summer 2023, Superintendent Léon is inviting proposals for summer

Dear Teachers and Instructional Staff,

During the week of June 6th, please distribute and introduce this year’s summer reading books and activities. Summer can be a vulnerable time for student learning. The summer reading projects can help students maintain reading performance.  Also, we want students to experience the many joys that come with being lifelong readers and learners. 

Your role in promoting reading is critical. Be creative. Be excited. Be supportive.  

In addition, take time to teach students how to sign in and explore

Dear Teachers and Instructional Staff,

In early April, Marisol Diaz and I were invited to observe Tenille Wasek’s 3rd grade ESL class at Benjamin Franklin Elementary School. Ms. Wasek was participating in the 3rd Grade Writing Residency that I was teaching. During the 90-minute class we observed greatness. Children were using appositives to introduce one another, modifying sentences by including subordinating clauses, and thinking about potential themes in the Jack in the Beanstalk stories they had been reading. 

Great teaching. Great
