Cozby Summer Reading
In order to help prevent the loss of literacy skills that your child has learned this school year (known as "summer slide"), it is important that your child reads every day for at least 20 minutes. In order to raise lifelong readers, we have to let reading be fun. Reading is most enjoyable for children if they get to choose what they read and when they get to read with the adults in their family. Please, visit the Cozby Public Library and read together so that reading feels like important and special family time.
During summer the Cozby Public Library and Community Commons organizes weekly activities and programs for children, teens, and the whole family. Visit the Cozby Library Events Calendar (link below) and read Summer Reading Programs flyer (attached) for more information.
Last Day of School
The last day of school will be Thursday, May 23rd. There will be early release at 12:15 on this day. Please let your child's homeroom teacher know if there will be any changes in their pick-up on this day. Report cards will also be coming home with end of the year updates.
