Kindergarten Summer Assessment
The Monarch Elementary kindergarten teachers are holding two assessment days for incoming K5 students. The days for this assessment are July 10th and July 15th. Please click the Sign Up Genius link to sign your child up for a 20 minute slot. Teachers will be assessing the students in the library while you wait. Plan to arrive 5 minutes prior to your scheduled time. The teacher assessing your child will not necessarily be the teacher your child will have this fall. We are excited to meet you!
Summer Reading
Monarch's Summer Reading program says "It's SLIME time to read!" Read now until the first day of school, August 8, 2024. Reading logs are due by August 23. Please click on the Summer Reading image for the Summer Reading Log and for more information on prizes and how long to read. Greenville County Public Libraries is also hosting a Summer Reading program. Earn more prizes by registering with these two programs. You don't have to read extra; what you read for Monarch will count for the extra program, too.
If you are a student going to middle school next year, please check out their summer reading program!
