I’m guessing they’ll all be sent out by tomorrow.
Does your current school send one or your new school? We are switching to a new school for 3rd grade, but it's not clear to us that they have any information about us. Haven't received any notifications of summer school or anything else.

You don’t need to sign up for all 3. You can just pick 1 that sounds interesting for your child. I think it’s great that they’re offering!

It sounds like each class is 40-50 minutes on zoom each day M-F. Everything is in the morning.
I am signing my 4th grader up for math and for enrichment (a class about animals because she loves animals and the teacher). I don’t want to do all 3 because 3 hours of Zoom a day is just too much. It’s nice that they’re free and I hope it’s worthwhile!
Where did you sign up?

I hope all schools do this, no word from ours yet!

I was reading the other thread from the teachers about summer school. Have any elementary parents heard anything?
