First Semester Academic Enrichment Class- 2nd/3rd and 4th/5th/6th Grades for Fall 2025 Literacy Launch K-2nd Grades
There are now three different options. State vaccination regulations apply. Funds are removed from curriculum first, and then enrichments. Work samples will be sent home. 

1.The first two programs utilize student's funds to add a day of on campus instructional time for families who are desiring more higher level academic instruction from credentialed teachers with more advanced projects and more time with other students. We have a nine student minimum. Classes would be broken up into two multi-age groups of 2nd and 3rd grade (Wednesday Class) and 4th/5th/6th grade (This class currently has a waiting list. Sign up if you would like to be added to the waiting list). (Tuesday Class). Students at the lower grade level (2nd and 4th grades) should be reading and writing at grade level to be able to have success at the multiage learning model. 

2. The second proposed program would be Literacy Launch. Through our Literacy Launch class, the Arete astronaut literacy team will explore new places (incorporating social studies learning) and also investigate different creatures and aspects of nature (incorporating science learning). Our expedition will start with the letter "A" and each week we will focus on a different letter of the alphabet. We will do fun and engaging read-alouds, book studies, spelling/phonics, penmanship practice, and writing surrounding these explorations. We will also incorporate art and some hands-on activities as part of our literacy adventures. Our time will be very integrated and thematic. Let’s launch into literacy! Note: This class will be appropriate for kindergartners who are beginning to read through 2nd graders who are not yet fluent readers. If this will be your child’s second year in our class, know that we will work on some different topics and activities than last year to keep things interesting. K-2nd Grades (Kinder students should know all letter names and majority of sounds and demonstrate an interest in reading basic words and should be comfortable with writing/formation of all letters.) Literacy Launch (1st and 2nd grades) has a focus that is perfect for emerging readers.

By completing this form, families are committing for one semester from 9am-12pm, for a total of $215 out of Curriculum/Enrichment Funds for Tuesdays and $225 for Wednesdays. (Yes, that breaks down to $5 an hour for high quality instruction). Tuesday classes will run from August 26- December 16 (No Class October 20 and November 11 and 25.) Wednesday classes will run from August 27- December 17 (No Class October 21 and November 26.All students should come prepared with a water bottle and a healthy snack that does not contain nuts.
