Summer School
Elementary Summer Intervention
This program is designed to provide academic assistance to students entering grades 1-5. It is an opportunity to bridge the gap between June and September, helping students retain skills learned throughout the school year, as well as providing additional help with those areas your child may find most challenging. Teachers provide engaging activities focused on reading, writing and math in a relaxed, fun atmosphere. We look forward to working with your student as they endeavor to enhance these important academic skills.
Who should attend summer school?
Students who are not meeting standards in reading, writing and/or math should attend the summer school program. District standards for students can be found on the Sumner School District Web site at www.sumner.wednet.edu. This program is available to Sumner School District students only.

From the Principal's Desk
Dear Husky Families:
It is hard to believe we are entering the last full month of the school year. Our May schedule is full of events as we continue to make this a special time of year for all of our Huskies.
I want to thank families, students and teachers for the community wide effort to support our students with the WASL this year. I’m very proud of our students’ hard work and positive spirit. Their great attitude is a tribute to their teachers and families that offered encouragement, support and snacks! We’re back to our normal schedule on May 5.
May 5-8 is Staff Appreciation week. I want to personally and publicly say “thank you” to the many wonderful staff members who make Maple Lawn a special place for kids. As a newcomer to the school, I’ve been continually impressed and blessed by the talented staff members throughout the Maple Lawn community. My appreciation for our staff is boundless!
Sincerely,
Mike McCartin
