Dear Robert Hunter families,
We can’t believe next week is already the last week of September - this school year is flying by!
Thank you for understanding our need to postpone our Back to School Night. We are happy that we will be able to offer an in-person event that allows the opportunity for families to visit their children’s classrooms. The Internet and phones are now back up and running throughout our building. Our teachers are ready and excited to meet you and tell you all about the great things that they are doing this year. We look forward to seeing everyone at our rescheduled event, which will be held Oct. 7th. Save the date!
We also hope to see many families at our first PTO meeting on Sept. 28! This is a great opportunity to learn more about upcoming events and how you can get involved, and we will be there to answer any questions that you may have.
We hope you are enjoying the weekend!
Warm regards,
Mrs. Glaab and Mrs. Braynor

Back to School Night
Back to School Night will be held on Oct. 7th in person at Robert Hunter.
We will be using the same schedule HERE.
Once again, we want to remind families that everyone must be masked to enter the building, and only one family member is permitted per child. Please note that Oct. 7th will NOT be an early dismissal. We will have our regular 3:35 dismissal on this day.
Picture Day
Picture Day will be held on Friday, Oct.1. We are asking all families to register your child here: https://orders.tssphotography.com/qpplus/register/event/91177/27126646
All students will have pictures taken that will be used in the yearbook. When you register, please write your child’s name as you would like it to appear in the yearbook. You will also have the option to purchase pictures online if you would like. If you do not want your child’s picture included in the yearbook, please let us know.
As a reminder, if students are wearing special outfits for picture day, please remember that they will still need appropriate shoes/sneakers for recess and PE.
Please see the flyer HERE for more information about school pictures.
.
Label Everything!
We already have water bottles, lunch bags and clothing for our lost and found. Especially as the weather changes, kids will come to school in coats or sweatshirts and then leave them on the playground. If you write your child's name on all items they are likely to leave somewhere, we can return them. If not, we keep a lost and found box in the main foyer.
