Setting the expectation for reading EVERYDAY throughout the summer needs to be established in order to reduce summer learning loss. Making regular visits to the public library can be both FUN and BENEFICIAL.

Esper Library is located at 12929 Warren Ave, Dearborn. It is FREE to join and to borrow books. Most libraries also have summer programs that students can join. Consider visiting the library a few times a month or even weekly!

Here are some reading lists that are provided by the Association for Library Service to Children (ALSC), a division of the American Library Association, that students may enjoy reading:

Kindergarten to 2nd Grade:

3rd to 5th Grade

Please join us to review the two elementary language arts (reading and writing) programs that will be piloted next year:

• Benchmark (Benchmark Learning)
• ReadyGen (Pearson)

Dearborn Public Schools will be piloting each of these highly rated programs in grades kindergarten – 5th grade for the 2019 – 2020 school year. Teachers selected for the pilot will use the same program for the entire year. All teachers will receive training. A resource subcommittee reviewed six programs and rated each through a rigorous process designed to identify the most relevant instructional resources.

At the end of the pilot period it is anticipated that an elementary language arts program will be recommended for adoption for the 20-21 school year for all elementary classrooms.

Good evening Oakman Families,

We hope you all enjoyed the beautiful weather this week. This week marks the beginning of the month of Ramadan. We wish you all a peaceful month. We encourage all students who plan to fast to eat healthy and balanced meals before sunrise so you are ready for  full day of learning.
