Coming this summer....
Dear Parents,
The objective of the Step Into Middle School Summer Camp is to provide students with an opportunity to be proactive and get prepared. As middle school students, the expectations are high and the level of rigor increases. This camp is aimed toward preparing the students for the transition with new study habits and skills, time management strategies, as well as fun and enriching projects to take part in with their classmates. It is a wonderful experience that the students enjoyed last year and I encourage anyone who can to read here =) Please email or call me with any questions!
Sincerely, Mrs. Katie Leman
