A is for Attendance.

B is for Being a Good Friend
This summer, have your incoming kindergartener practice sharing, taking turns, and being patient. These social skills help children build friendships and feel confident in the classroom.

C is for Counting
Count everything.
Steps.
Apples.
Toy cars.
Books.
Helping children recognize and understand numbers builds a strong math foundation.

Bring Back the 90s Summer: Remember when summer meant riding bikes, building forts, and staying outside until dinner?

Challenge your family to have a "90s Summer" by putting away devices and spending more time outdoors.

Adventure is waiting just outside your door.

Did you know we have a local museum right here in town?

The Sedro-Woolley Museum offers a fascinating look at local history, pioneer life, logging, and the people who helped shape our community.

• Location: 725 Murdock Street
• Open Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays from noon to 3 p.m.
• Admission is by donation.

Every Sedro-Woolley School District student receives a FREE library card through the Central Skagit Library, even if they live outside the library district.

It's not too late to join the library' Summer Reading Program! Reading challenges, events, prizes, and activities are available.

Summer reading helps students maintain important literacy skills and keeps young minds engaged between school years.

Many families don't realize Pomona Grange Park features interpretive trails, local plant information, Friday Creek access, and opportunities to spot salmon during spawning season.

This is a great place to learn while exploring this summer!

Can you find:
• A pine cone
• A bird
• A butterfly
• A cedar tree
• A flowing stream

Outdoor exploration builds observation skills and curiosity.

The last day of school may be here, but we're already preparing for the 2026–27 school year!
