Dear Parents or Guardians,

On behalf of the staff at Mann Learning Community, I am happy to welcome you to the 2024-2025 school year! We are looking forward to a productive partnership with you to ensure our children can achieve their highest potential. We recognize that to be successful in school, our children need support from both home and school. We know a strong partnership with you will make a significant difference in your child’s education. As partners, we share the responsibility for our children’s success and want you to know that we will do our best to carry out our responsibilities. We ask that you guide and support your child’s learning by ensuring that he/she:

1) Attends school daily and arrives on time, ready for the day’s learning experience 2) Completes all homework assignments given by teachers

3) Reads daily to develop a love for reading and to improve literacy skills

4) Shares school experiences with you so that you are aware of his/her school life 5) Informs you if he/she needs additional support in any area or subject

6) Knows that you expect him/her to succeed in school and go on to college

Please consider joining our school volunteer program as our students can benefit from your involvement and contributions to the school’s program and its operations. We seek volunteers to help us with the following activities: 1) Teacher-led instructional support, usually in the classroom 2) Reading with children who need extra help 3) School-wide events 4) Student recognition events and 5) Outreach and recruitment of parent and community volunteers.

First day for students: Monday, August 26, 2024 (K-5)

(Pre-K students will report on Tuesday, September 3, 2024)
