Enrichment Schedules

Dear Parents,


The following suggested schedule and embedded links provide additional enrichment opportunities for students TK-5. These suggestions are not meant to replace the assignments, activities or readings that your child’s teachers may already be providing. Remember that no feedback will be available.

Also, as a parent, you know your child best. Please consider that every child is different and while some students may want to do more, others may feel overwhelmed by endless assignments. Remember the importance of play time!

Before asking your student to complete enrichment activities, talk to your child and consider his/her personality, interests and overall well being during this time of uncertainty. In addition, screen time should be monitored and adults and children alike need balance between on and off screen time as well. Fun, games, and physical activities ensure a well-balanced and happy child!


Thank you.
