The Lucas Letter
Dear Hanna Woods Families,
As we enter into the holiday season and remember all for which we are thankful, we would like to provide you an opportunity to share with others. We have some families in our own school community who could use some assistance this holiday season. When we share with others, we brighten their holidays and our own.
If you would like to help a Hanna Woods Family this year, please click this link https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090A4BAAA628A4FB6-hanna and sign up to purchase a gift. After signing up, please purchase the gift, wrap it, indicate on the package what family the gift is for and what child (i.e., "Family A Girl Age 10), and send it to school no later than December 15th. Please be aware that all gifts donated must "sit and isolate" in the building for a certain amount of time before being given to the families. If you could send gift donations in as soon as possible, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for sharing with others, and please be sure your children are a part of this experience. One of the most important lessons you can model for your children is that of generosity. Thank you for your support, and if you have any questions, please call the school office or one of the school counselors.
I also want to take this time to celebrate our assistant principal, Melissa Schewe. Saturday morning, Mrs. Schewe participated in a virtual ceremony in which she was hooded by her husband, Doug, and became Dr. Schewe (pictures below). Congratulations, Dr. Schewe, on completing the requirements of the Maryville program and earning your doctorate!
In partnership,
Cartelia Lucas

Picture Day Make-Ups
We needed to complete our first picture day(s) before scheduling the make-up date(s) with the challenges of getting the initial pictures taken. Interstate shared that the make-up date(s) would likely be in January but is still to be determined. We will also consult with them on whether the make-up date(s) will align with a retake day or if that will be a separate session. We will share this information as soon as it is finalized.
Please know that if your child missed picture day for any reason, you could submit a picture of him or her facing forward. The photo should be of the upper part of his or her body, similar to the picture included. These pictures will be included on the class page in the yearbook. Please email those photos to hannawoodsyearbook@gmail.com
