💦 Pool Noodle Place Value: Hands-On Math That Floats! 🔢
Turn colorful pool noodles into a fun, tactile tool for practicing place value, number building, and comparing numbers. This simple DIY activity works great indoors or outdoors, and it's perfect for reinforcing math skills in a playful way.
How to Set It Up:
1️⃣ Cut pool noodles into small pieces, about 2–3 inches wide.
2️⃣ Write digits (0–9) on each piece using a permanent marker. You can make several sets.
3️⃣ Use a broomstick, dowel rod, jump rope, or string as a “number line” or base to build multi-digit numbers.
Activity Ideas:
🔢 Build a Number
– Call out a number (e.g., 347) and have your child place the noodle digits to match each place:
3 = hundreds, 4 = tens, 7 = ones
– Talk about the value of each digit.
Each place has a purpose! Use the noodle digits to show how 3 stands for 300, 4 for 40, and 7 for 7. Together, they make 347!
⚖️ Compare Numbers
– Build two numbers side-by-side and ask:
“Which is greater?”
“Which number has more tens?”
“Which one is closer to 1,000?”
Math Skills Practiced:
✔️ Identifying digits and their values
✔️ Building and reading numbers
✔️ Comparing greater/less than

There’s something special about turning car rides into family reading time and word fun! Summer road trips are the perfect chance to build literacy skills without worksheets or screens.
Try a few easy games while you travel:
🚗 Spot and read road signs aloud
🔤 Make words from license plate letters
📚 Take turns creating a story one sentence at a time
🎵 Play rhyming games with names of towns or restaurants
🧠 Find items that begin with each letter of the alphabet
These simple activities help children practice vocabulary, listening, reading fluency, and creative thinking — all while making memories together. Even a quick trip across town can become a fun learning adventure!
Summer is the perfect time to make healthy eating fun, colorful, and family-friendly! ☀️🍉
Fresh fruits and vegetables are everywhere at this time of year, making it easy to add healthy choices to snacks, meals, and even road trips. Try keeping fruit cut-up in the fridge, adding veggies to picnics, or letting children help choose produce at the store or farmer’s market.
A few simple ideas:
🥕 Pack healthy grab-and-go snacks for outings
🍓 Freeze fruit for a cool summer treat
🥒 Add colorful veggies to lunches and cookouts
💧 Encourage water instead of sugary drinks
👨🍳 Let kids help prepare meals and snacks
Healthy summer habits can help children stay energized, hydrated, and ready for all the fun the season brings!

Jump Rope Math: Skip, Count, and Learn!
Turn your jump rope into a math-powered learning tool that builds fluency and keeps kids active—all with zero prep!
How to Play:
1️⃣ Skip Counting Challenge
While jumping, count by 2s (2, 4, 6, 8...), 5s (5, 10, 15...), or 10s (10, 20, 30...)
Try to see how far your child can go without missing a jump!
2️⃣ Math Fact Jump-Outs
Call out a math fact (like 6 × 3)—your child answers before their feet hit the ground!
Use addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division, depending on age level.
3️⃣ Timed Fact Sprints
Set a timer for 1 minute. How many math facts can they answer correctly while jumping?
Switch it up: Parent jumps while the child calls the facts—or vice versa!
4️⃣ Rhyme & Recall
Make up rhymes with facts while jumping (e.g., “Two, four, six, eight, counting by 2s feels great!”)
Why It’s Great:
✔ Reinforces fact fluency and skip counting
✔ Builds coordination and focus
✔ Gets the body moving while keeping the mind sharp
✔ Easy to do at home, at the park, or on the sidewalk

As another school year comes to a close, we are proud to celebrate the many accomplishments, milestones, and memorable experiences that filled our schools throughout May and June. From academic achievements and artistic performances to athletic successes and community celebrations, our students continued to demonstrate excellence, creativity, leadership, and perseverance.
Across the district, students were recognized for their hard work and achievements through awards ceremonies, honor society inductions, academic competitions, and student recognition programs. Others showcased their talents through music, art, writing, and other creative endeavors, earning honors and representing our schools with pride.
Our schools also embraced opportunities to celebrate together through special events, family activities, end-of-year traditions, and school-wide celebrations. These experiences helped strengthen connections among students, staff, families, and community members while creating lasting memories as the year came to a close.
We are especially proud of our graduating students as they prepare for their next chapter and grateful for the many staff members, families, PTO organizations, and community partners who helped make this school year such a success. Their support continues to create meaningful opportunities for students both inside and outside the classroom.
Be sure to check out the attached document for highlights from each of our schools and programs. We are incredibly proud of our students, staff, families, and community partners for making the 2025–2026 school year one to remember!

Summer is the perfect time for students to rest, recharge, and rediscover the joy of reading! ☀️📚
Reading isn’t just an important academic skill — it’s also a great way to support wellness, relaxation, and family connection. A good book can help children slow down, reduce stress, build imagination, and enjoy quiet moments during busy summer days.
Here are a few simple ways to make reading part of your family’s summer routine:
📖 Set aside a daily “quiet reading” time
🛏️ Create a calming bedtime reading routine
📚 Visit the local library and let children choose books that interest them
🌳 Take reading outdoors to the porch, park, or backyard
👨👩👧 Read together as a family and talk about favorite characters or stories
🎧 Try audiobooks during car rides or relaxing afternoons
Whether students are reading independently, listening to stories, or reading together with family, every page helps build vocabulary, creativity, focus, and confidence. Most importantly, reading gives children time to relax, recharge, and enjoy learning in a fun and meaningful way all summer long!

☀️Summer Strong: Healthy & Happy All Season Long 🏖️School’s out, but wellness is still in! Encourage kids to stay active with fun summer activities like swimming, biking, or playing outside during the cooler parts of the day—early morning or evening. Don’t forget water breaks—staying hydrated is essential in the heat!
Keep those bodies moving and minds sharp all summer long with these ideas:
💧 Water Fun at Home – Set up sprinklers, sponge tosses, or water balloon games. Bonus: great exercise and a way to cool down.
🚴 Outdoor Adventures – Go for bike rides, have sidewalk chalk games, or nature exploration walks before or after the hottest part of the day.
🍓 Hydration Station – Keep a pitcher of fruit-infused water in the fridge. Let kids add lemon, berries, or mint to make it their own.
🍧 Healthy Frozen Treats – Make smoothies or yogurt-fruit popsicles together. A tasty way to beat the heat and sneak in nutrients!
🎵 Rainy Day Dance Breaks – Summer storms? Turn up the music and have a family dance party indoors!
Keep it fun, keep it active—and enjoy a summer full of movement, sunshine, and healthy habits!
