Hansen Weekly Update
March 11, 2022
Hi Hansen Students, Parents, and Families!
We have had another exciting week here at the Hansen with our students, and ended today with a great day of professional learning with our staff. At the Hansen much of our staff spent some time this morning engaging in an introduction to restorative practice, while we continued with our ongoing learning around literacy instruction in the afternoon. We hope today provided our students with opportunities to relax, play, and have fun!
Please enjoy some of this weeks' Hansen highlights through the pictures below...

Boosterthon!
The Boosterthon team will be on campus with our students and staff beginning March 29 and staying through our Fun Run event, which is scheduled for Wednesday, April 6. We are hoping for some great weather to allow for an outdoor run, and are looking forward to all of the excitement and energy that is coming our way! The students will have a blast, while at the same time, raising funds to go towards the Hansen School for enrichment opportunities.
Be on the lookout for more information coming soon!
