Friday November 9, 2012

I hope you have had a great week; I know I have and I believe my students would say the same thing!  I have a lot of information to share with you today regarding many events scheduled here at Hawthorn and for the Park Hill School District.

Park Hill Education Foundation Fundraising Begins

A large envelop will be sent home on Monday to kick off the Education Foundations Scholar Dollars fundraising campaign.  The money raised through the sale of these value cards goes to support and enhance educational opportunities within the Park Hill School District.  This can take the form of scholarships for college-bound students or grant money for innovative teachers. The goal of the Education Foundation is for each child to sell 3 cards. For more information about the Education Foundation and their role in our school district please visit www.parkhillfoundation.org.

HAWTHORN FOOD PANTRY

We will continue the tradition of hosting a food pantry for those in need. Please send your child with pantry items throughout next week.

 

Personal Narrative Publishing Party!!

We are so excited to extend an invitation to all of our families and friends for our first publishing party of the year!!  The students have been diligently working to craft meaningful personal narratives and are excited to share them with you.  An invitation was sent home today, Friday Nov. 9th.  You have 3 opportunities to hear the children share their writing.  The dates are as follows:  Friday Nov. 16th from 9:30-10:30, Monday Nov. 19th from 9:00-10:00, and Tuesday Nov. 20th from 1:00-1:50.  Please check your schedule and RSVP for one of those blocks of time.  We hope you can join us!

School-wide Read In and Silly String Celebration

The Tuesday before Thanksgiving Break we will be celebrating the success of our Math-A-Thon by having a school-wide Read In from 10:00-10:30.  Later that afternoon we will join the rest of the school in the gym to watch Mrs. Cazzell's class spray silly string on Mrs. Hemaya and Ms. Erwin.  They earned this exciting reward by raising the most Math-A-Thon donations.
