HES News to Know
December 2017
From the Principal
We ended the 6 weeks with introducing Clubs to our Haslet Eagles. Research shows that students who participate in 2 extra curricular activities are more academically successful in school. Since traditional clubs are only accessible to students with transportation after school, we are trying clubs DURING the school day. All Haslet Eagles chose a club to attend during Club Time on Thursday and Friday (21st and 22nd) . There are many clubs to choose from, such as coding, chess, STEAM activities, Just Dance, sing along, cup stacking, painting, cooking, Legos, puzzles, crafts, yoga, and mad scientist. Exciting times!!
See you next year! (in 2018)

JA in a Day -- Volunteers Needed!
Junior Achievement is back, January 19th!! Known as JA in a Day, Junior Achievement utilizes parents and community volunteers to teach students basic business and economic concepts. Junior Achievement's programs—in the core content areas of work readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy—ignite the spark in young people to experience and realize the opportunities and realities of work and life in the 21st century.
Volunteering is so much fun!! You get to spend the day with great kids while helping them become global citizens. We offer a volunteer training for all volunteers who have not taught JA in a Day before and you will receive a kit with lesson plans and materials to guide your day. For even more fun, you are welcome to team up with a friend and co-teach a class. To volunteer, please click this link: https://goo.gl/forms/1N50hU2SRQboR4D52.
Volunteer Training: January 10th, 3:00-3:30 pm, Haslet Elementary or via webinar
