Dear Hoffman Families,


We had so much fun on Halloween - thank you to all the room parents who helped create fun activities for the students at the parties, and thank you to the PTA for arranging sherbet cups for all!


We also had a great time last Friday at High-five Friday with the Glenview Police and Fire Departments! (Pictures below.) There was even a surprise appearance by the actual Hoffman Hornet!


We are so lucky to have families and a community that supports our school and students!


See you soon,

Selene
