Principal Message - April 15, 2016
Happy Spring!
Students have transitioned nicely back to school from Spring Break. Teachers continue to plan student centered lessons to promote student thinking and design. I marvel at the growth of our students and I greatly appreciate the incredible effort by all involved.
Below in the Important Information and Dates section is information and a link for the 2016 Ed. Services Professional Nomination Packet and Online Nomination Forms. I urge all parents and community members to recognize a faculty member that your child may have had that went above and beyond and has made a difference in your child/children educational growth. Please do not hesitate to nominate them for this great honor!
Report Cards will be posted today after 3:30pm. Please continue to follow us on Twitter, Instagram, and our school web page as school highlights and important information will continue to be posted. As always my door is open for any questions or concerns you may have. Please feel free to contact me at any time. I hope that we have a strong finish to an awesome school year!

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.
