Please help show our teachers and staff how much we appreciate them by contributing to the February 7th dinner.  We need students to write brief expressions of thanks, which might include special memories of a field trip or an exciting project or lesson, or a time when a teacher or staff member provided special encouragement.  We also invite parents to send notes of appreciation as well. These notes will be printed and mounted for display at the dinner.  Please email meghaist@me.com with your short note by Monday, February 4th (students should specify if they wish to remain anonymous or be identified).  Students who wish to hand-write their notes may drop them off in the HSA mailbox in the office. We also need parents to donate food or serve at the event, which begins at 4:30 on February 7th. Please email meghaist@me.com if you can help and we will email you with details.

Hello Parents,
The 8th Grade Advanced Chorus is doing a fundraiser for their trip to Boston. They will be selling and performing singing Valentines Feb 4th-8th for 7th and 8th grade students only.  The Singing Valentines will be sold during lunch ($3 for one and $5 for 2).  Here is how it will work:

  1.  Students purchase a Singing Valentine during their lunch period.
  2.  On the Singing Valentines note, they will write their name on the inside of the note and their "Valentine's" name and homeroom on the outside of the note.
  3.  They will fold their note and give it to the teacher at the Singing Valentine's table.
  4.  The Advanced Chorus will perform for students and teachers in 7th and 8th grade homerooms.
  5.  After they perform, they will privately give the notes to the people who received singing valentines.
