Greetings North Wales Families,
It is the official last week of school! Tuesday is our last day of school and it is an early dismissal. Students will be dismissed at 12:30pm. Report card will be available on infinite campus at 12pm. If you requested a print out of the report card, your student will receive it on Tuesday.
We had a blast at our PBIS End Of Year Event- Mr. Crayder on the music and Little's provided our water ice. Check out the pictures: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1-0jth5bTMbMl6rPxgywssiUqGrb902zI?usp=sharing
Congratulations to our retirees- Karen Jablonski, Tracy Calveresi, and Chris Sylvester!
Have a wonderful summer!
To report absences and schedueled vacations, please use the School Messenger- the preferred method for parents/guardians to report their child's absence, tardiness, or early departure.

North Penn Elementary Summer Program
Summer Enrichment Opportunity, K-6
In order to promote continuous learning and engagement over the summer, the North Penn School District will be offering opportunities for summer enrichment for all elementary students completing grades K-6. These offerings are recommended, but completely optional for students and families. Our goal is to share resources and activities throughout the month of July that are the perfect blend of academics and fun in order to best support continued engagement over the summer.
This program is designed for students to complete asynchronously, with the engagement of their families. Students will be invited into a class through Canvas, and activities will start to post on Monday, July 1st. New activities will be posted weekly, on subsequent Monday’s throughout the month of July (7/1, 7/8, 7/15, and 7/22). There will only be four weeks of engaging activities to stimulate creativity and encourage students to stay academically charged. However, the Canvas course will remain open until August 9th, so families have the flexibility to access the summer learning opportunities when it’s convenient for you!
If you are interested in gaining access to our summer learning Canvas course for your child, please register your child on the Infinite Campus Portal by June 10th. Here are written directions to access the registration portal and here is a video overview as well. If you need support accessing the Canvas course, or any resources within the course, please contact North Penn Family Tech at _npennfamilytech@npenn.org
