Summer Momentum Work
Our Summer Momentum Guide is designed around one key principle: short, consistent practice matters far more than large assignments. We are not asking you to recreate school at home; however, we are asking you to support a simple daily routine that keeps your child sharp and growing.
What your child needs this summer:
- Reading (10-30 minutes daily)
- Math Practice (10-15 minutes daily)
- Writing (2-3 prompts per week)
- Faith Formation (weekly prayer, Mass, and service)
Your child’s Summer Momentum Guide can be found below, by selecting the grade that they will be going to in the Fall. All they need is their guide, a composition notebook, and a library card.
When school begins in August, students who complete their Summer Momentum Guides will be recognized with a celebration, certificates, and school-wide acknowledgement.

FAQ’s
Q: What if we plan to travel this summer?
A: Reading and journaling can happen anywhere. Pack the composition notebook and keep reading!
Q: What if my child misses some days?
A: Consistent effort, not perfect attendance, is the goal. Aim for most days rather than every day.
Q: What books should my child read?
A: Visit your local library. Ask the librarian for books at your child’s reading level. Any book that interests them is a great choice!
Q: Do I need to buy workbooks?
A: No. The Momentum Guide and composition notebook are all that is needed. Additional workbooks are never required, but not discouraged.
Q: What if my child wants to do more than what is required?
A: Wonderful! Extra reading, math games, and creative writing are always encouraged, but never required.
