Hello Hawks Rise Families,
What a week it has been! I am thankful that the damage to our area was minor, especially compared to the places so close to Tallahassee. I want to give a huge thank you to our teachers, staff, and families
who worked to ensure our students stayed on schedule on the days we were in school. This helped our students remain calm and positive during a very scary time.

September is the first Principal’s Book Chat for 2nd -5th graders. We have ordered more copies of
Stuart Little, and they are scheduled to be here by next Thursday. Students must take the test by the end of the school day on
October 2 and score a 70% or higher to be eligible to attend the Book Chat on October 5. This is a great opportunity for students to enjoy this great book by reading it independently or reading it with a family member.

Our SAC meeting and PTO meeting have been rescheduled for September 28 since Open House will be on our usual date.
