Principal Message - June 1, 2016
Happy June 1st!!!
As we near the close of the 2015-2016 school year, I would like to share some friendly reminders. The month of June is very busy. Classroom teachers will be closing out ELA and Math assessments, meeting to discuss 2016-2017 class rosters, and participating in many school activities. Please continue to discuss with your child the importance of making good choices and continue to give their best effort. The school year is not complete and teachers expectations have not changed.
Thank you to the families that have re-registered. The district appreciates your cooperation. Please click on the link below for additional information:

School Mission Statement
At Hazelwood Elementary School we believe…….
All students can and will learn in a nurturing school environment where collaboration and exploration is encouraged and will foster a lifelong love of learning.
Positive relationships are vital for student success. Our school doors will always be open to assist our families to ensure our students are growing academically, emotionally, and socially.
Hazelwood students will become confident, compassionate, respectful, and committed to making a difference not only in the classrooms and hallways of our school, but in our wonderful community of Middlesex Borough.
