IMPORTANT DATES June 15 - July 17 Summer School June 15 - July 31 JK Summer Fun July 20 - July 31 K-8 Summer Fun THANK YOU AND FAREWELLS I personally would like to thank you for having chosen our school this past school year and for your support and positive energy. This year took an unprecedented turn with the Covid-19 crisis and it was very impressive to see how the faculty, staff, parents, and students embraced this new challenge all working from home and adjusting to Distance Learning. I have enjoyed watching your child grow and new friendships being made and wish you a wonderful and safe summer with your family.
Again thank you to Leslie Bingham, Junior Kindergarten teacher who will be leaving us after 29 years and Kristy Scherman for serving as the JS PFA representative after 4 years. You both will be sorely missed. With fond aloha!
JK MOVING UP CELEBRATION The event was videotaped and will be shared with parents when ready.
2020-21 EXTENDED DAY Based on current conditions, LJA is planning for a face-to-face return to school in August. If you will need care for your child after school next fall, please register here today for Extended Day 2020-2021 school year. The extended day program provides a fun and enriching program from after school until 6:00 p.m. for grades PK-8, and there are a variety of program options available, including holiday care. Please note that space is limited and on a first-come-first-served basis. You will be notified if your child is placed on a waitlist. New this year, payments for Extended Day will not be due at the time of registration. Payments will be due in September 2020. If you have any questions, please contact the Extended Day office.
REPORT CARDS Second Semester report cards will be emailed to you in June. Please note that the teachers are reporting only on content presented and will not be able to report on personal student progress as we were in Distance Learning mode and not able to conduct an individual assessment.
SEESAW PORTFOLIOS All Homeroom Teachers participated in the Seesaw Learning Journal program. If you would like to download a copy of your child's digital portfolio please do so prior to June 30. Click HERE for information on how to create the download.
INFORMATION FOR 2020 - 2021 Families returning to the Junior School next year will receive an email over the summer with information on what is needed prior to the beginning of school. The first day for all students will be August 19 with students starting in half groups on August 17 or August 18. Classroom assignment letters will be emailed home in August showing your child's homeroom teacher and which day will be your child's first day of school. Students returning to the Junior School for the 2020-21 school year will need to complete the Magnus Health information in July, but do not need to resubmit the Form 14 or the preschool supplement form 908. The only exception will be if your child was previously missing immunizations. Leah's Bug/Insect Unit on display!
