Good Morning Blackhawk Parents/ Guardians,
Last week, each child who is mandated to attend summer school received a letter sent home. Please follow the instructions on the paper and complete. It is very important that the summer school application is completed. If your child does not attend summer school, it puts them at risk of retention. Summer School will begin June 12th - July 13th. Applications need to be completed and submitted not later than May 19th, 2023. I will be sending another document home today to those who did not complete the application.
