Hickory Elementary August Leaders of the Month
To view the virtual convocation video shared with all students this morning, please go to:
Thank you to 1st grade teacher, Mrs. Ashton Franklin, for coordinating, editing, and creating the monthly video!
Reminders from the School Nurse-
~ Please send your child to school with a mask. It is important that these are appropriately sized for your child. Ear loop face masks tend to work better than the gaiter style.
~ Also, please remember to send a water bottle to school with your child every day. Staying hydrated is important, and drinking fountains are not available for use.
~ Lastly, if you received a message from me indicating that I am missing your child's most up-to-date immunization record, please make every effort to submit that to school as soon as possible.
Thank you for your help in these important matters!
