Welcome from Mr. Lefere!
Welcome New Howbert Staff!

Ms. Diane Gajewski - Reading Interventionist
Ms. Julie Hamilton - Reading Interventionist
Ms. Julie Foster - Speech Pathologist

Arrival and Dismissal
DISMISSAL: The dismissal bell will ring at 2:30. Students that ride the bus must report to the bus as soon as possible. Students that walk should begin walking home right after dismissal.

Students not picked up by 2:45 will wait within the building for pick up.
