  • August 2019

    Summer vacation is slowly passing and I hope everyone is enjoying some time with family and friends.   Summer break should provide some time for fun, rest and relaxation for all of our students, so they come back ready to learn during the new school-year.  During the summer break, school administration is keeping busy planning for a new and exciting school year so that we can provide the best educational programs for the children.

    As a reminder, it is important to make sure that your child completes the Reading and Mathematics Packets over the vacation session.  These materials were made available online for all students in Grades 3-6. A hard copy can be picked up at the school office.

    (Please note that the 6th Grade Transition Students should complete the work packet available to them on the Wallington High School website)

    The completed packets will be collected by your child's teacher when they return to school in September, and students will get credit for their work.

    Again, enjoy the rest of sumer vacation and I look forward to seeing everyone in September.

    Respectfully yours,

    Nancy Giambrone
