This is a message from Mrs. Blanchard, Principal at Hampton Elementary School. Here is your weekly edition of the HES Hawk Squawk. In addition to no school today, Friday, May 4th, there are no classes on Monday, May 7th.
Tuesday, May 8th – Home and School meet in the library at 6:30PM.
May 8-11th is designated Food Allergy Awareness Week in our community. We will be encouraging students and staff to wear purple on Thursday, May 10th in support of raising awareness for Food Allergy and Anaphylaxis.
Grade 5 transition event to HMS: Hampton Middle School is hosting their annual Open House Transition event on Thursday, May 10th from 6:30-8PM. Both parents and students come together to this event and students are available to bring groups on tours in a very relaxed environment.
Jump Rope for Heart went home this week. If you are not participating, forms can be returned to the school. Forms and funds raised are due back by Monday, May 14th.
“I Read, We Read, H.E.S. Reads!” Did you know there are only 6 Fridays left before the end of the school year? At H.E.S we would like to unite with families and the community to boost students’ reading skills. Each Friday, you are welcome to join us from 8:15a.m. until 8:45a.m. to listen to our students reading. Reading aloud helps build fluency, improves comprehension and helps develop critical reasoning. The reader is more invested in the process and is more likely to think about what he or she is saying while reading. More importantly, reading aloud builds reading confidence!
Please find below a message from Ms. Watson, Office of the Superintendent regarding Wednesday, June 6th:
Under the NB Teachers Collective Agreement, all Kindergarten to Grade 8 teachers are to receive two half days each year for report card preparation. The teachers had a half day in November dedicated to preparation of their report cards. The report cards were new to everyone and this time was appreciated. On March 15 the Kindergarten to grade 8 teachers were scheduled to have another half day to help with their preparation of the March 2018 Report Cards. Unfortunately this was a storm closure day across the District. As a result of this, we must adjust our school calendar so there is a half day dedicated for the June report card preparation at K-8. This will happen on Wednesday, June 6, 2018 and on that day it will be an early dismissal day for all K to 8 students. We apologize for any inconvenience this change may cause, and we hope by giving a one month notice you will be able to make the necessary arrangements.
Our weekly Hawk Squawk is always posted on our school website under the Synrevoice tab!
