A Message from the Principal...
It has been an exciting month at Thomas Hooker! Our Techsperts presented to the Board of Education on December 4th. Their presentation was entitled Code, Create, Collaborate and they did a fantastic job. Our Model Citizens were honored at the same board meeting. We had our holiday concert and it was great to see so many of you in attendance. It was a wonderful performance. On December 14th, we participated in Pajama Day to support the Connecticut Children's Medical Center. We are proud to announce that we raised $468.15!
In this month's edition you will find a link to a special broadcast here at Thomas Hooker. We hope you enjoy it!
On behalf of myself, Mrs. Rogala, teachers and staff at Thomas Hooker we wish you a very happy holiday season and a very Happy New Year! We will see you on January 2, 2019!
Sincerely,
Dr. Torres
