Welcome to the Class Pages, hosted by our Pre-K 3, Pre-K 4, and Grade K to 8 Faculty!
MANHATTAN SUMMER PLUS PROGRAM 2020
Dear Parents of Students in Grades 1 - 8 as of the new school year,In conjunction with the Manhattan School Regional Office of the Archdiocese of New York, all students in Grades 1-8 will focus on the target areas of ELA and Math during a six week period in the summer:
July 6 to August 14, 2020
Assignment: Each student should complete 1 hour of activities in ELA and 1 hour in Math per week for six weeks. Each activity is approximately 20 minutes in length and can be completed during the day.
High Achievers who score 80% and above on activities will receive prizes as well as those students who successfully complete a record number of activities with most time on task.
In addition to prize incentives, there will be an online recognition program.
Please make certain your children know that the work on Edgenuity is even more important this summer because school was closed for the last third of the school year. Continuing learning during the summer is imperative as students move on to the next grade in September. This year we cannot afford students to have the usual “summer slide” when they lose a large percentage of the intellectual skills they have accrued during the school year.
We need parental support to ensure that all students are completing this important work.
While this letter states the six-week assignment time frame, obviously students who continue working on Edgenuity will have higher achievement rates going into their next grade.
You will be contacted this summer regarding your child’s level of participation. I will personally be following each student’s progress.
Please email mangeles@ollnyc.org and cc: skaszynski@ollnyc.org with questions or problems. Thank you.

Suzanne Kaszynski
