			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Last week, we sent you the summer reading lists and asked you to make an effort to help your child read and do the summer activities.</p>
<p>During the summer vacation, it’s just as important that students continue to practice the Arabic language skills they have learned throughout the school year so they may retain the learning and be ready for the following year. For this reason each student will be assigned an Arabic packet for the summer to be returned no later than September 30th.</p>
<p><strong>Students entering 1<sup>st</sup> and 2<sup>nd</sup> grade</strong> will need to read and write to answer the packet.</p>
<p><strong>Students entering grades 3 and up</strong> will also be asked to read, finish and return the Arabic packet. Additionally, they will be tested and graded for their effort.</p>
<p>We would also like students to take advantage of the summer vacation to memorize more Qur&#8217;an. A <strong>Ramadan Surah</strong> will be assigned to every single student. Students entering <strong>grades 1 and up will be tested and graded</strong> on the Ramadan Surah aftercoming back to school, Inshallah. A copy of the Surah will be sent home with your child to practice.</p>
<p>May Allah (SWT) reward you and bless your summer.</p>
