Dear Families,                      

 

Welcome to 4th Grade at Center School! We hope that your summer is filled with reading, relaxing, and time for your child to enjoy carefree summer days. 

 

We are so fortunate that Center School has purchased the majority of needed school supplies for your child.  However, please purchase the following before the first day of school:

• 1 pencil pouch or pencil box

• 1 3-subject spiral notebook

• 1 pack of expo markers

• 1 pair of headphones/earbuds  (labeled with your child’s name)

• 1 box of tissues

• 1 package of antibacterial wipes

 

We will also ask for a check made out to “Center School” for the Scholastic News Publication, in the amount of $8.00. Thank you for sending that in the first week of school.

 

We strongly encourage summer reading in order to keep reading skills sharp and to prevent regression. Storrs Library offers a wonderful, engaging summer reading program that will foster a love of reading in your child this summer.

 

A 4th-grade skill that will be very important for your child to be efficient with is knowing the multiplication facts through the 12’s tables. Getting a jump-start on this over the summer will be beneficial to your fourth grader.

 

We are greatly looking forward to our partnership with you in the year ahead as we work together to support and encourage your child on their individual learning journey, in cultivating their independence, and in developing their unique skills and talents.  

 

We know that together, with strong home-school communication and teamwork, your child will have a successful and wonderful year.

 

Sincerely,

The Grade 4 Team
