Hanover Street Elementary will be offering parenting classes to those interested. Our first session, titled "Family Meetings" is meant to offer ways for families to conduct conflict resolution and promote better communication between family members. This session will be held on January 25, 2010, from 6:30pm-8:30pm at HSE. Our second class, titled "Parenting in Blended Families" will be offered on February 22, 2010, at HSE, and is meant to help provide positive ways to manage blended families (i.e. step-parents, shared custody, etc.) If interested, please request a registration form at our HSE office. There is no cost for the classes, and free babysitting is provided.
We have just received confirmation that Hanover Street Elem will be administering the H1N1 vaccine to registered students on Tuesday, December 2, 2009. This will begin at 10:30am and conclude at approximately 1:00pm. We are encouraging all students to bring a teddy bear or stuffed animal with them to school this day! If you have any questions, please contact us at 637-9000 x-127. Thank you!
Recently at Hanover Street Elem, we recognized students for the accomplishments of perfect attendance and honor roll throughout the first marking period. Students in grades 1-4 could earn honor roll status by achieving Advanced scores on their report card for math and language arts. We had many students achieve this milestone, as well as perfect attendance. We will continue to recognize these student achievements throughout the school year, and will include an additional award for Most Improved, students who do not achieve honor roll, but did make dramatic improvements in their school performance. We hope this is an on-going motivator for our students and another way to recognize our students hard work and accomplishments!
This week, Nov.16-20, is American Education
Week! We are thrilled to be able to invite parents in to HSE during this
week to see first-hand, some of the great things going on in our
classrooms! We hope that you enjoy your visit with us and look forward to
seeing you again soon!
This year, for the first time, HSE PTO will be offering a student yearbook for purchase to all students. We feel that this yearbook will make a great keepsake to commemorate the school year. At the end of the year students can have fun gathering signatures and well-wishes from all their friends. We are looking at the cost of these yearbooks to run approximately $7.00 each. Parents will also have the option of "adopting" a yearbook or yearbooks for other students whose families may not be able to afford the cost. We encourage you to consider this option, if able. Thanks HSE PTO!
Parents of students K-5 are invited to learn more about our new Everyday Math program. The session will be held at the Middle School on Tuesday, November 17, 2009 @ 6:30PM.
