Dear Robert Hunter families,
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are so thankful to be a part of the RH community, and we are looking forward to seeing everyone again this week.
We had an extra special spirit day before we left for Thanksgiving break. Third grade students from Ms. Mecanko and Mrs. Hadzimichalis’ classes did an amazing job leading our whole school meeting. As a school, we shared what we are grateful for, inspired by the book Gracias, Thank You. Our meeting ended with some staff members (including ourselves!) getting pied in the face to celebrate exceeding the PTO’s Walkathon fundraiser goal. The excitement of the students during the “pieing” was amazing! And of course, the students had a blast working together to build classroom forts! It was a great day, sharing in fun and joy as a community!
Thank you to those of you who have generously donated to the Helping Hands holiday drive. Donations are due on Monday. Please read more details below.
Have a great week, and we hope to see many of you at the virtual PTO meeting on Tuesday.
Warm regards,
Jessica Braynor and Lindsay Shirvanian
