Dr. Robert Campman, Assistant Principal (rcampman@hhsd.org)
As we begin the month of March, we look forward to the warmer spring temperatures, although we know there may be a few colder days in the forecast! Please remember that we try to have outdoor recess every day, so have your child wear appropriate layers of clothing for our changeable weather. Last week, we removed the "Merry Go All" blue and yellow spinner from the playground, as it needs to be repaired. As soon as the replacement parts arrive and are installed, the spinner will be back!
Car Line Reminder
Please remember to enter the drop off and pick up line only from the library side of Babylon Road. Do not attempt to turn left onto Stadium Drive from the Horsham Road side or try to enter the car line from the high school parking lot. We appreciate everyone's kindness and courtesy to ensure student safety!
Food Drive Update
Congratulations Mrs. Caldwell's second grade class who were the Week 4 first place winners! They will enjoy a fun gym experience with our reading team. The second place winner from Week 4 is Mrs. Koebert's kindergarten class, who will enjoy a read-aloud with Mrs. Bixler. Our Week 5 winning classes will be announced tomorrow and we will share the final food drive totals with the school community in next week's newsletter.
Our final collection day for the food drive is tomorrow! Thank you for your generosity and commitment to addressing food insecurity in our school district. We are grateful for your support.
