What's Happening??!!
~ Hawley Elementary School Newsletter: January 2, 2022 ~
From the Desk of Mr. Moretti.....
Dear Hawley Parents/Guardians, Teachers, and Staff,
I hope that you all had a wonderful holiday season and Winter Break. We are still up against the virus as the new strain is more easily spread. Dr. Rodrigue and the District nurse will be sending out information regarding the return of school.
However, I thought before looking at what lies ahead, we could take a moment and look back at our terrific December.
Buckle up, stay seated, and keep your hands and feet in the car at all times, as you read on to find out What's Happening at Hawley .....
~ Happy New Year ~

From the Mouths of Babes.....
It was PJ Day and Mr. M had on a Onesie set with feeties.
"I like your PJs" a student said to Mr. M
"Thank you" replied the Principal
"What is it they say?" inquired another youngster
"#1 DAD" answered Mr. M
To which another student replied, "Nah, I think my mom beats ya!"
