Your partnership in student learning is more important than ever. We are writing with important information to support learning over the summer and how to pick up those materials next week. Summer Learning Materials We are excited to provide your elementary student with a package of books, reading response journal, sight word flashcards for grades K-3 and a Scholastic reading and math workbook over the summer. Students should take at least 30 minutes every day to read. Our Summer Reading Challenge is back, so make sure to log that time here: https://district.ops.org/ABOUTOPS/SummerReading.aspx#103181328-current-progress. To keep students engaged through the summer, learning resources will continue to be available online. You can find that information here: https://libguides.ops.org/athome. Other Materials: We have some promotional items for our fifth graders to recognize their incredible accomplishments as they move up to Middle School. Be sure to pick these up! If your student has not picked up their Scholastic Pictures yet, we will also be distributing them at this time. Technology and Equipment Return To limit traffic and prioritize health and safety, we only ask our fifth graders or students who will not return to the Omaha Public School district in the fall to return items checked out from school. · Library Books · Music Instruments For the Health and Safety of All The distribution and return will follow a drive-through format. Please drive to the parking lot on the East side of the building and pull your car up to the back-cafeteria doors. Students and families will remain in their cars. Staff and volunteers will be wearing masks and come to your vehicle with your student’s material. If you or someone in your home is ill, do not visit school. Please contact me by email to find another option.
