Pen Pal Program (Grades PreK-12)
Overview
 | - Each semester, the registered student gets paired up with another Enlightium student of the same grade level.

- Enlightium will post a reminder on the Enlightium Parents app monthly for students to correspond with their pen pal.
- Registration for the Pen Pal Program for the 2025-2026 school year will open during Student Social Week from September 8-12, 2025.

How does my student get paired up with another Enlightium student?
 | - During the registration process, the families provide:
- The student's name, gender, and grade level.
- The best mailing address for the student to receive letters, or their email address.
- Enlightium will randomly pair your student with another Enlightium student who is
- geographically distant from your family.
- The parent is strongly encouraged to be involved, especially at the younger grade levels.
