I am so thankful for the time we have had together this school year! I feel so very blessed to get to work with such great families and co-workers! I am very humbled by your generous words, thoughts, and gifts. I pray that you have a wonderful summer break.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Even though we are taking a break from classes, remember that God never \u201ctakes a break\u201d from caring for you. Keep Him in your summer plans!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Summer Reading List 2026-2027<\/strong> Here is a link to the Summer Reading List. Enjoy reading!<\/p>\n\n\n\n GOING INTO Fourth Grade <\/strong> Recommended (choose at least 2):<\/strong> I have included a link below for the whole school for your convenience. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At Hope Lutheran School, we value reading, and reading every day during the summer is important. Students at each grade level (1st \u2013 8th grade) are\u00a0REQUIRED\u00a0<\/strong>to read books by August 21, 2026.
Please help your child get started on the\u00a0required<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0Summer Reading assignment for 4th grade. The students will need to stay in the habit of reading, so it is best to establish a daily\/weekly routine right away.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Please write a half-page summary (at least 2 paragraphs) of each book you read. Can be typed or neatly handwritten. <\/strong>
