Hale Connection
Week of November 14th
Nathan Hale Community:
Thank you to all our families who were able to join us for Report Card conferences. If you were unable to schedule a conference, please reach out to your child's homeroom teacher. Report Cards will be mailed home for those who were unable to attend conferences this week.
In an effort to keep traffic safe and orderly during drop off, we are asking those families who plan to walk their child to the door to please use the side parking lot of the cafe or park on Townsend Avenue. If you are dropping off your child, please pull past the crosswalk and as close to the auditorium as possible. This will maximize the number of cars we are able to have in the lane. Have your child exit your vehicle on the right side of the driveway closest to the school sidewalk whenever possible. The lane on the left hand side of the driveway should be used for those passing through and exiting the drop off area.
Our school store is open on Fridays! There are a variety of fun items for students to purchase along with academic supplies. If you have any questions, you can direct them to Nancy.Dumark@new-haven.k12.ct.us.
Pancake Breakfast tickets are now on sale! We hope you can join us for this event. 15% of the proceeds will directly benefit Nathan Hale. Please see the flyer below.
There will be an early dismissal on Wednesday, November 23rd. Students will be dismissed at 12:00 PM and there will be no school on Thursday or Friday for the Thanksgiving Holiday.
Have a wonderful weekend with your families!
Thank you,
Nathan Hale School
Arrival and Dismissal Procedures
- School doors open at 7:30 AM. Please do not leave children unattended prior this time, as there is no supervision available out front to monitor children dropped off early.
- If your child arrives after 7:45, they will be marked tardy. They must receive a late pass before going to their homeroom.
- Middle School students dismiss out the front of the building. Kindergarten dismisses from the auditorium. Grades 1 through 4 dismiss out the cafeteria doors. Please have ID available when picking up children in grades K-4. Siblings in grades 5-8 can sign out their younger sibling in the cafe and dismiss through the front doors.
- We understand that parking is limited, however, parents should not be parking or turning their vehicle around in the back bus loop. It is a safety issue, as students are boarding their buses at dismissal time.
- If you are making a last minute change to your child's regular dismissal routine, changes must by e-mailed to your child's teacher AND Michele Cappiello by 12:00 PM.
