Summer Break Elementary Learning Opportunities

June 21, 2018 By Johanna Hanneman

Come Visit the Park Elementary Library

During these summer months, you and your family are encouraged to participate in some fun learning activities to keep skills refreshed. One wonderful opportunity is visiting the Park Elementary Library during each Wednesday throughout the summer, from 8 a.m. through 2 p.m. (except for July 4th). Students have the opportunity to get rewarded for reading; the more they read, the more they can earn (additional information can be viewed here)!  In addition, the Park Library is hosting a photo contest.  The rules are as follows:

  • Snap a picture of a Park Elementary student “caught reading”.  Creativity is encouraged!
  • Bring picture to the Library or email image to our Librarian, Naomi Shadis by 9/1/2018.

All photos submitted to the contest may be featured in the morning announcements or online.
