June 5:  Hello Summer!
"Wherever life may lead you, may you go with the song in your heart, and a spirit inside that makes you want to sing. When you find someone who needs you, may you share the song in your heart, and discover the joy that it can bring..."
Wishing all of our Dragons a fun and restful summer. As you leave school to start your break, may you go with song and a smile in your heart. Thanks for a truly wonderful year!  Congratulations and best wishes to all of our graduates! Go forth and shine!
 Important Announcements:
Be sure to check out our St M Facebook page for photos, videos and memories from the closing exercises and graduation. Stay tuned this summer for the adventures and travels of Flat Dragon!

Summer Assignments and Back To School
Whether you call it the Summer Slide or the Brain Drain, students can lose ground in reading and math over the summer break.
To help our students practice what they learned this year and exercise their brains while they are away, HERE is the link to summer assignments by grade, as well as recommended reading lists. You can also find this on our website under "Community/Summer-Back to School."
Once school is out, our team will be finalizing Back to School forms. Please check the website in mid-July for updates.    
MIDDLE SCHOOL FAMILIES: Please check the website mid-summer as the Middle School will be posting answer sheets to the summer math assignments so that students may check their work and understand if they need additional review of math concepts.
The Adventures of Flat Dragon!
Our St M Dragon is excited to join our families on their summer adventures — whether that be on vacation, camping in the yard, swimming at the pool, or curling up with a good book. This summer, snap a photo of your family with Flat Dragon and send it to aamore@stmschool.net.  We will track all of Dragon’s summer fun on St M social media! (By sending in a photo, you give St. Michael’s permission to use it in School marketing and social media.)
St M families may download a Flat Dragon here on our website under "Summer/Back to School".
Show us your Dragon Pride and help our Dragon have the best summer ever! 
Co-Curriculars at St M!
St. Michael’s believes that important learning also happens outside the classroom with purposeful exposure to a broad variety of activities and experiences. That is why we offer inclusive co-curricular and sports opportunities for our students at both campuses.
For planning purposes, here is a full year list by season of the co-curricular and sports opportunities that will be offered in the coming School year. You may also access this information on our website under Community/Co-Curricular/Sports Info.

As my own first year at St M comes to a close, thank you for so warmly welcoming me and my family into this amazing St M community!
