Greetings, Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools Families!

I hope you are enjoying your summer! As the temperatures continue to rise, you may be looking for fun activities to stay cool inside. I want to remind you about our 2025 Summer Resources Guide, which is accessible through our Family Portal. The guide is full of learning opportunities, summer fun and support resources for students and families.

Even though it’s summer, our dedicated team is hard at work preparing for the start of the new school year – enhancing our curriculum, updating resources, and ensuring that our facilities are ready for the return of our students. We are committed to providing a safe and inspiring learning environment that fosters academic excellence and personal growth.

I encourage you to stay connected with us here on the district website and be sure to check out our Back-to-School website, which will be available later this month. The site will include important information you need for a smooth start to the 2025–2026 school year – everything from transportation information to immunization information to the free and reduced-priced meal application to information about afterschool care. You can also follow our social media channels for updates and information about upcoming events.

Please mark your calendars for our Open House events. Check with your schools for specific times.

• Thursday, Aug. 7 – Early & Middle Colleges
• Tuesday, Aug. 19 – Middle Schools
• Wednesday, Aug. 20 – Elementary Schools
• Thursday, Aug. 21 – PreK-8 & High Schools

Thank you for choosing Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools and for partnering with us in your child’s education. Together, let’s make this school year the best one yet!

Enjoy the rest of your summer.

In service and partnership,

Crystal
