Parents, Guardians, Teachers, and Staff –
Happy Wednesday!!!
Progress Reports have been published to the parent portal.
There will be a
SAC and PTO meeting on Thursday, November 18. SAC will take place at 6 pm on Zoom. The PTO, Parent Teacher Organization, meeting will take place at 7 pm in the media center.
Helping Hands is a program we have at school to provide clothing and a small stocking
stuffer to our very own HRES families who could use a helping hand. We still have items available to sign up for. Here is the link to the online signup:

Principal’s
book club. This month we are reading Charlotte’s Web. There will not be chocolate cake…but we have other fun surprises planned. Because of Thanksgiving break, the November book chat is scheduled for Wednesday, December 1. 1st – 5th
grade students must take the AR test on or before November 30 to be included. Kindergarten students who read it with their families should draw a picture of their favorite scene and have a parent or guardian sign the picture.
Drop off & Pick Up. Please
do not drop kids off in the parking lot in the morning. It is not safe. Please either drop students in the car line, or park and walk your student across the cross walk. In the afternoon, students will not be able to cross the crosswalk without an adult.
Please park and walk to the sidewalk in front of the school.
The
volunteer application can be found here:
https://volunteers.leonschools.net/ Please schedule with teachers to come onto campus and volunteer.
We need your time on campus to be documented for contact tracing purposes.
Please enter campus through the front office and sign in.
No volunteers will be allowed in classrooms or the cafeteria at this point. All adults indoors on campus are required to wear masks at this time.
We are starting to schedule
field trips again! If you are interested in attending a field trip with your child at any point during this year, please go ahead and complete the volunteer application. The volunteer application can be found here:
