As a result, they read and write more effectively and score higher on standardized tests and college prep tests and beyond. The impact lasts a lifetime. • Students learn word etymology and country of origin, the meanings of prefixes and suffixes, and spelling rules. • By studying words grouped in thematic categories, spellers not only acquire knowledge but also develop cognitive skills and increased understanding of ideas and values.

I understand that there is no transportation provided. All students except those who normally walk home must be picked up no later than 1530. I also understand that there may be days when an activity is canceled because of teacher absence, meetings, or some other valid reason. If this should happen, students will be dismissed as they would on a regular school day; i.e., at 1445. Efforts will be made to contact parents, prior to the end of the school day in case an activity is canceled. I have discussed this with my child. After club transportation:
