Hello Hawks Rise Families, Thank you so much for the warm welcome I have received since joining the Hawks Rise family. Your children are amazing, and I enjoy talking to them and working with them each day. I look forward to continuing the Principal’s Book Chat, and the book for November is Anne of Green Gables. This book chat is eligible for second through fifth grade students. Mrs. Van Hise and I will meet to discuss the book and have a fun activity with a themed snack on November 30. Next week would be a perfect time to curl up and read this great book! [cid:e47ee6e1-41c1-447b-8480-a443f774037f] It is Helping Hands Time! The Guidance Team and PTO partners are conducting Helping Hands similarly to last year by using Sign-Up Genius again. Helping Hands is an opportunity to help purchase winter clothes, shoes, and needs for some of our Hawks Rise families anonymously. Information about the gifts and sizes will be given to teachers to send home with students. All gifts should be newly purchased with tags. Sign up Genius Link to go live on Friday, 11/4/22. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20F084AAAAF2FA02-helping3<https://nam11.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.signupgenius.com%2Fgo%2F20F084AAAAF2FA02-helping3&data=05%7C01%7C%7C287a8533fa874e43cd8008dabdda524f%7C69292adba72a4537aa24d67a6f5642bc%7C0%7C0%7C638031043020241344%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C3000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=REfE10dUEacMlJRZTdMFivnC7IYyMMz6wM3fr1e8bzQ%3D&reserved=0> Helping Hands timeline: 11/4/22 through 11/18/22: Parents can sign up to purchase gifts on Sign-up Genius 11/17/22 through 12/2/22: Information will be sent home with students about gift needs and sizes.
