Summer is the perfect time for students to continue building strong reading habits! Reading over the summer helps students maintain and grow their vocabulary, comprehension, and critical thinking skills while also encouraging creativity and imagination. Students can read books, magazines, graphic novels, newspapers, eBooks, or even listen to audiobooks — the important thing is that they keep reading regularly and choose topics that interest them.

We will also be sharing information soon about our Summer Beanstack Reading Challenge, so be on the lookout for details on how students can participate, track their reading, and earn fun incentives throughout the summer!

As always, the OCPS Code of Student Conduct can be found HERE.

As we approach the end of the school year, we want to remind all students of the importance of continuing to follow the OCPS Code of Student Conduct through the very last day of school on May 27th. We are excited to celebrate the end of a successful year together, and we appreciate everyone helping maintain a safe, respectful, and positive school environment for all students and staff.

For planning purposes, please note that backpacks will not be permitted on Tuesday, May 26th or Wednesday, May 27th. Students should plan accordingly and only bring necessary items to school on those days.
