Middle School Summer ipads

It is a well-documented fact that many students experience a “summer loss” in reading and skills while they are on a hiatus from school.  We have given a lot of thought about how we can maintain the success we have had this year.  Therefore starting the week of August 5th current 4th, 5th and 6th graders will be able to get their ipads a month early.  Each ipad will have a new eSpark mission based on the student’s spring NWEA score.  In addition the summer reading assignment with the accompanying eBook will also be loaded on the ipad.  We are hopeful every student will avail themselves to this opportunity.  There is no requirement to come to school as we previously spoke about.  Just some productive, individualized work on the ipad!!

Diplomas for Our Youngest

As we are only four days away from the high school’s graduation and the advancement of our students into their future, we also honor students at each of the other grades with “moving-up” ceremonies. Even Mineola’s youngest – those in the Kornreich Early Childhood Center – march and receive certificates to take the next step in their lives. Congratulations to all of those in our district who have advanced to the next level of their education. DSCN4691
