Enjoy Summer!

We enjoyed working with your children this year!  We hope you have a wonderful summer!  We look forward to seeing you in the fall. 

Summer Reading

The summer reading assignment for students entering fifth grade is to read Holes by Louis Sachar.  Students will complete activities related to this novel during the first weeks of school in August. 

The summer reading assignment for students entering sixth grade consists of reading three books. One of the books is provided by the school, and students will complete the Required Books Form located in the "Summer Reading" section of the St. Paul's website. Students will also select two other books to read for the summer, and they will complete the Listed Books Form.   For more information about this assignment please visit the Middle School Summer Reading section of the St. Paul's website. We also went over this assignment in depth during the last week of school.
