Weekly Newsletter – April 14-18
Happy Monday morning!
We hope you and your students enjoyed a great spring break! We look forward to having students return to school!
Here are several useful pieces of information. There is a lot. Please skim entire newsletter so you do not miss out on important information.
Congratulations to our April Hawk Heroes! These students were nominated by faculty members, fellow students and other community members for being responsible with their schoolwork, being kind, helping others, and showing respect. We are grateful to these students for contributing to our community in positive ways. They were all awarded with a gift bag, and our juniors and seniors received a special parking place in the student lot for the month of April. Go Hawks! We wish to recognize Robeks, Crumbl, Einstein Bagels, Arctic Circle, and Menchie’s for their support of our students. Please go support these local businesses!
