Hembree Highlights
Message from Ms. Smith
Hello Hawks!
This week was filled with laughter and fun. We had author and illustrator, James Dean, visit us this week. He is the creator of Pete the Cat. Our students had the opportunity to hear about his journey, learn how to draw Pete the Cat, and be reminded of how special they are. This was a wonderful visit. I want to say a special shout out to Catherine Berrigan and Carrie McAtee for making it happen.
We also had a wonderful Start and STEM night last night. Thank you Javier Tavel, Lucy Gilbert, and Milton High School volunteers for making it such a great success.
Have a wonderful weekend. I am sure that some of you will be watching football this weekend. Have fun and make lots of memories.
Sincerely,
AJ Smith
