What's Happening ?? !!
~ Hawley School Newsletter: September 7, 2018 ~
From the Desk of Mr. Moretti
Dear Hawley Parents/Guardians,
I can't believe we have 2 weeks of school under our belts. Despite the heat and disruptions to our schedule, they have been 2 wonderful weeks of smiles, fun, creativity, problem-solving and learning.
In regards to the heat and disruptions to our schedules, I want to thank you parents for your kind words and support. Plans were in place and you were most responsive to changes. The students were terrific. They remained upbeat and hard working and perseverance was the result. The Hawley staff had their focus, as always, on students. Staff kept students in good spirits, excited, working, and cool by visiting cooling areas. Thank you all!
Here's What's Happening at Hawley.......
Beating the Heat!

2nd grade girl to father, "That's a lot of treats."
"Well, the teachers are very special here and this is our way of saying thank you" dad responds.
"And what's in there?" the girl asks pointing to the urn.
"Coffee" answers dad.
"Well, you need to save some of that for Mr. Moretti otherwise he gets very cranky"
