Summer reading is crucial for sharpening literacy skills and preventing learning loss during the break. As summer reading plans vary by school and grade level, please review the specific guidelines below for the 2026-2027 school year.

All students in grades K-3 should have received summer reading books before the end of the school year in June. Please ensure your assignments are completed and prepared for submission on the first day of school, as they will count toward their first grade of the school year. 

If you have any questions, please contact the main office at your student’s school directly.

The health and safety of our school communities is our top priority. As you prepare for the first day of school, please ensure that you have completed the necessary immunizations and health exams required by city and state health departments and submitted proof of completion to your student’s school. Taking these steps will ensure that your student is medically cleared to participate in activities, including athletics, and will inform school leadership of any medical conditions that may need attention during school hours. You can visit Mastery’s newly launched Student Health page to learn about the requirements for your student based on their age and grade, and access forms. Please review the page and take action as soon as possible. If you have questions about next steps or where to submit documentation, please contact the main office at your student’s school to speak with the nurse or a school leader.

Athletics and extracurricular activities play a critical part in student development and school culture. 

Families can learn more about athletic offerings on their school’s webpage or by contacting the school’s athletic director. To be eligible to participate in fall sports at Mastery Schools, students must: 

• Have successfully matriculated to the next grade level
• Not carry a score below 65% in two (2) or more classes (including half-credit courses)
• Complete the required pre-participation forms listed on our Athletics page to indicate medical clearance, permission to stay after school, and approval to travel for events

Families of student-athletes should visit the Athletics page as soon as possible to access and complete the required tasks. If you have questions, please contact the athletic director at your student’s school or Aiesha Gary, Senior Director of Alternative Programming and Supports, at [email protected]. 

To ensure the safety and well-being of all students participating in after-school activities, the required participation form must be completed and submitted to the school before a student can begin participating in extracurricular programs.
