Lower Division Notes

Dear Lower Division Parents,

Our LD students are making great strides with their summer reading! So far, we’ve logged 66,378 pages in Beanstack, blowing our goal out of the water and earning an out of uniform day! 

Don’t forget: Students who read at least 400 pages will earn an "I ❤️ Reading" bracelet and be entered into the drawing for a $50 Amazon gift card (one winner per grade level)!

Homeroom Assignments
Your student’s 2025–26 homeroom assignment is listed on the end-of-year Skills Report. Rising second and third grade homeroom assignments are located on the Language/Arts Math Skill report, and rising fourth grade homeroom assignments will be in the content area of your 2024-25 homeroom teacher. New families should have received this information via email. If you have not, please email me.

Uniform Closet and Sizing Info
Our Uniform Closet is open for families needing gently used uniform pieces. Stop by the front office before or after orientation to check it out! Helpful information from Flynn’O Hara below:
  • Virtual Sizing Tools: Families can now access easy-to-use sizing guides, instructional videos, TruFit virtual measuring tools, and virtual appointments with a Flynn O'Hara customer service rep from the comfort of your home, at any time of day, by clicking here.
  • Updated Return/Exchange Process: Families can return items at their convenience and place a new order, allowing for a quicker turnaround compared to the traditional exchange process. Do so by clicking here.
 
Orientation Reminder
LD Orientation Day: Aug. 19
10:00 a.m.-12:00 p.m.

This is a great opportunity to meet your student's teacher, tour the classroom, and get ready for a fantastic year ahead! You will not need to stay the entire time. It is designed to be a come-and-go event.

Enjoy the rest of your summer — and keep those pages turning!
 
Best,

  • June 13 - Early Summer Reminders

    Dear Lower Division Parents,

    Summer Reading Challenge
    We’re excited to kick off our Summer Reading Challenge through Beanstack, and we hope you’ll help us encourage your student to keep reading throughout the summer!
     
    The challenge is simple: Read and log at least 400 pages over the summer, and your student will receive an "I ❤️ Reading" bracelet and have their name entered into a drawing for a Grand Prize: a $50 Amazon gift card. One lucky winner will be chosen from each grade level.
    But that’s not all! We’re also working toward another school-wide reward.
     
    35,000 pages logged collectively by Lower Division by July 31 = Out of Uniform Day
     
    All reading must be logged in Beanstack to count toward individual and school-wide goals. Look for more information on how to use Beanstack from the email you received on May 21st, or in the Summer Reminders section below.
     
    We are excited for our new families joining Casady and would love for them to participate in our reading challenge too! Currently, we do not have a way to add new families to Beanstack, but you are welcome to keep a paper log or track via the Metropolitan Library's summer reading program in Beanstack, and hopefully, we'll be able to sync the reading before school starts.
     
    Let’s work together to make reading fun, help our students grow, and earn some awesome rewards! Thank you for supporting a summer filled with great stories and even greater learning.
