    •    Elementary school programs are only for students who have shown a demonstrated need for extra support in reading based on state reading criteria.  You should have received a letter from the school if you student is eligible for this year’s Summer Bridge program. 
     The district is strongly urging parents of eligible students to register their children for Summer Bridge when the registration period opens tomorrow March 24th. Eisenhower Elementary is a Summer Bridge site.
