Dear Robert Hunter families,
This past week may have been a short week, but it was packed with learning and fun!
It was also National School Psychologist Appreciation Week. Thank you to Kerry Donovan, our RH school psychologist who supports students, staff, and families every day! This upcoming week, we recognize our substitute teachers - we are so grateful for our fantastic substitutes who support our school community.
For families of students enrolled in the after-school support program, please review the calendar carefully with dates when this program is in session. Students will have after-school support clubs this upcoming week. The Crazy 8s Math Club is also still in session this week.
We are looking forward to a full week of school!
Warm regards,
Jessica Braynor and Lindsay Shirvanian

Snapshots From The Week
Changing Weather
Now that colder weather is upon us, please be sure that your child is dressed for the weather, and remember to send your child to school with a coat, hat, and/or gloves for recess. These items should be labeled with your child’s name. Please be prepared for students to go outside for recess each and every day. Our cafeteria aides, along with our school nurse, will determine how long students will stay outside for recess, depending on weather conditions.
Conferences
Conferences will be held Dec. 6th, 7th, 8th, and 9th. These will all be early dismissal days, and students will be dismissed at 1:20. You should receive confirmation of your conference date/time by Nov. 15th. Conferences will be held with your child’s classroom teacher. Support, ESL, G&T, and Special Education teachers will also be joining your child’s conference if your child receives those services.
Salvation Army Winter Coat Drive
Robert Hunter will be helping the Salvation Army to collect new and gently used coats for all ages and sizes. The coats may be dropped off at school the week of 11/7 and the week of 11/14. Coats can be dropped off in the bin by the main office or in the nurse’s office.
Blood Drive
We will be having a community Blood Drive at Robert Hunter School on Dec. 20th. If you are interested in participating, you can sign up using the following link:
