This is a message from Mrs. Blanchard, Principal at Hampton Elementary School.
ATTENDANCE MATTERS: Did you know that attendance is directly relational to achievement levels? Students who miss 24 days a year, or 8 days per term, will have missed nearly a full year of school when they finish their grade 5 year!
November 20th - 24th is Diversity and Respect Week for New Brunswick. We will be linking curriculum content to this week.
Hot Lunch orders for the month of December are due on Monday, Nov. 20th. There is a new option added to Fridays, chicken quesadilla. The new milk order begins Monday.
The evenings will be busy next week. On Monday we have our PSSC meeting. On Wednesday, the District invites parents from the local schools to attend a Program information session at Hampton Middle School, 6:30PM, regarding options for Early French Immersion at the Grade 1, 3 and Late French Immersion at Grade 6.
Report Cards with assigned parent teacher times, will be sent home on Monday, November 20th. Parent-Teacher Meetings will take place Thursday evening, November 23 from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. AND Friday, November 24, from 8:30 until 11:00 a.m. If you would like to meet with one of our specialist teachers, please call the office (832-6021) to arrange an appointment.
