Lawrence Summer Update
A busy season for learners and facilities
Getting ready for September
In Lawrence the work of the schools doesn’t stop in July and August. Work is being done to ready all buildings from a facilities stand point and to ready all learners from an instructional lens. We await Department of Health clarification for reopening guidelines and will share that news as soon as it becomes available.
Thank you

Are you reading?
This year over 7,000 new books were distributed to our learners. The research strongly correlates reading daily to increased vocabulary and school success. We hope our learners are reading the weekly reading newsletters as well as their new books.
Tuesday, August 10th from 9-11 there will be a mid summer reading check in at the Broadway campus for all learners. Be on the look out for details!
