Hello Falcons!!
We completed our benchmark testing this past week for spring. This measures student growth in math and reading while informing our instructional strategies. Special thank you to the Fontana Garden Club for inviting our 6th graders to perform their OE skit. The Garden Club is a huge support to our school and outdoor education each year. Here are FIVE things to know this week:
We are excited to offer another great summer learning opportunity at Fontana School! Students will participate each day in math, reading, and engaging enrichment activities, with a variety of enrichment options available for students to choose from on the first day based on their interests. These activities are designed to make summer learning fun, meaningful, and engaging for all participants. To help students get the greatest benefit from the program, families are encouraged to commit to full attendance for the entire two-week session.
Fontana’s 2026 Summer Coaching Program is now open! Last summer, we piloted this program with a small group of students, and participants showed growth in reading, math, and social-emotional skills while also building strong, supportive relationships with staff. Based on this success, we are excited to expand the opportunity and open it to all families. For more information please visit our website by CLICKING HERE.
