We continue to be impressed with the efforts to support families in our school district who are experiencing food insecurity. The food collection is growing every day! The winning classes from week 2 are: First Place, Mr. Beck and Second Place, Mrs. Peterson. Mr. Beck's class will be playing kickball with Ms. Green and Ms. Sciubba. Mrs. Peterson's class will be enjoying a read aloud with Mrs. Doan. Week 3 winners will be announced tomorrow morning and shared in the newsletter next week. Just two more weeks to go!
Week 4 Food Collection begins tomorrow through Feb. 23rd: Canned tuna, canned beans, and kids' snacks. Thank you for your ongoing support. First prize is gym time with the reading teachers and second place wins a read aloud with Mrs. Bixler.
PLEASE NOTE THIS IMPORTANT CHANGE TO THE HHSD VOLUNTEER FBI CLEARANCE PROCESS: Anyone wishing to volunteer in the School District of Hatboro-Horsham, that has not resided in Pennsylvania for ten (10) years or more, may experience a two-week waiting period for approval of their FBI clearance. The district can no longer access the FBI clearance database for those requiring this verification. The official FBI clearance documentation will be sent to your home. Upon receipt, you need to supply the District with the official clearance record, so we can copy it and maintain it in your file. Volunteers who require the FBI clearance must allow ample time for this approval process. Should you have any questions please contact Ryan Bloomfield, Human Resources Assistant at rbloomfie@hatboro-horsham.org.
