Thank you
Sailor Families,
I just wanted to update you on an addition to our visitor process for events that are during the school day. As you most likely already know, all HSSD schools use RAPTOR to check-in visitors. This includes needing to show / scan a valid driver’s license. You only need to do this ONE time and it can be done at any HSSD school. Once you do this, you will be in our (HSSD) system and when you visit our school during the day, the office will print you a visitor badge that you will wear during your time here. This system is both a safety step and also helps to keep track of who is in our building during the day and for what reason (e.g. Lunch, concert, etc.).
We have a concert coming up in March that will bring in a lot of visitors. To expedite this process, if you haven’t done so already, come to our office (or any HSSD school) and get your license checked into our system. Conferences next week will be a good time to get that done! To even further make things more manageable on the day of our concert OR a bigger event at BH, we will send a message to families in advance so that you can fill out a form to let us know if and when you will be attending the concert so that we can get visitor badges printed in advance.

mySAEBRS
Attention Parents/Guardians of 2nd, 3rd, and 4th Graders:
Your student will have an opportunity to increase their awareness of their social and emotional behaviors through completing a social, academic and behavior screener. The screener, mySAEBRS, will ask students a total of 21 questions and will be completed in under 10 minutes. The student’s teacher will also complete a similar screener based on their observations of their students. This screener will allow school staff to identify universal and targeted areas for growth focused on students’ ability to regulate their emotions, develop positive relationships and make positive decisions. This screener is done twice a year.
Feel free to contact Sydnee Milis with any questions or for more information. If you would like to opt your child out of the screening process please complete this opt out form by March 1st.

Howard-Suamico Storm Breakers Pre-Competitive Swim Class
Does your child love to swim? Please consider the Howard-Suamico Storm Breakers (HSSB), the local, competitive club swim team!
There will be a two-week, pre-competitive swim class from March 4-14 (no class on March 7). This class is for prospective new swimmers interested in learning about competitive swimming. Swimmers should be level 3 or higher in swim lessons or should be able to swim the length of the pool without stopping or needing help. If your child is not level 3 or higher, they can be tested on the first day. Instructors will not be in the water with the swimmers.
If interested, please register here. The cost is $30. There are 24 spots available. The class will be held at the Howard-Suamico Community Pool (attached to Lineville Intermediate).
If your child is not able to register, but would still like to try out for HSSB, tryouts will be held on March 15 (time TBD). Any swimmer who does the two week pre-competitive class and would like to join the team does not need to try out.
If you have any questions, please reach out to head coach Connor Huff at huff.connor@gmail.com.
