Parent Conference Sign Up
Thanks to everyone for signing up for conferences. I can't wait to talk to you about your amazing kids!! I will send a conference reminder slip before conferences begin. Those of you having virtual conferences, I will send a Google Meet link 24 before your conference.
Field Trip Time!
Conner Prairie is this Thursday!! Attached is the info. sheet, which will also come home in backpacks on Wednesday. If chaperoning, please come to school with your child -- we leave at 8:45 a.m. Also, remember we will be returning late -- please plan to pick up your child at Hershey (front lot) between 4:00 - 4:15 p.m.
Fall Party
Our Fall Party is on Friday, Oct. 27th in the afternoon. A Perfect Potluck link is below if you'd like to sign up to donate anything. This party is pretty low-key: cookies & juice, candy (trick or treat style!) and a short movie. No need for volunteers for this one, but don't worry! I'll need you for the Holiday Breakfast in December!! Thank you in advance for your help!

Veterans Day
4th and 5th grade are gearing up for our Veterans Day program on Tuesday, Nov. 7th. A flyer is attached to the newsletter email with details. Only Veterans and their caretakers are invited to attend due to limited seating and parking. Please click HERE to RSVP.
Flag Project Reminder...
2/3 and 3rd grade are planning to line the halls with homemade flags for Veterans Day again this year. A flyer with details is coming home today, attached to the newsletter email, and is posted on our social media. Flags may be turn in on or before November 1st -- so lots of time to be creative!!
Book It!
The Book It program begins today! Students can earn Pizza Hut personal pan pizza certificates for reading at home (which they already do, so it's a win-win!). The October flyer is in backpacks today and is due back on Nov. 1st.
Attendance Line and Dismissal Changes
If your child is going to be absent from school, the office asks you to please call the Hershey Attendance Line at 765-269-8342. Also, if there is a change in your child's dismissal, please call the Hershey Office directly before 2:30 at 765-269-8280 rather than emailing the teacher(s).....we don't always check our email and don't want to miss anything. Thanks!!
