We are pleased to announce that Westwood Elementary will be hosting an academic summer school program for Westwood, Grainwood, and students attending Kids' Company at Westwood and Edgewood this summer. The summer school curriculum will serve students who have completed Kindergarten through 5th grade, and will focus on providing additional instruction for students needing a boost in reading, writing, and math.
Dates: Monday-Thursday, July 6th to August 4th (No class Monday, July 4th or Tuesday, July 5th)
Time: 8:30 a.m. - 11:30 a.m.
The summer school programming is free and eligibility is based on student need. Participation in summer school is determined by the following criteria: teacher recommendation, test scores, or participation in special programs at Grainwood, such as Title I, English Language Learners, and/or Special Education.
Letters and summer school registration forms have been sent to students who have met initial criteria. If you have received the letter and would like your child to attend, please return the completed registration by Thursday, April 21st. If you have not received the summer school information letter but would like to inquire about your child attending, please call your child's classroom teacher.
This is an opportunity to extend your child's learning with additional days of instruction focused on your child's learning needs. Summer school attendance will also help eliminate the loss of learning that occurs during the summer.
Limited transportation IS AVAILABLE to and from Westwood from collection stops in the Westwood and Grainwood attendance areas.
If you have questions regarding the summer school program, please speak with your child's classroom teacher or call the Grainwood school office at (952) 226-0300. We look forward to the opportunity to work with your child through our summer school program!
