Dear HP,

Hope everyone had a great week, and you are able to enjoy some of this beautiful February weather we are having right now. This week some of my highlights have been visiting Mrs. Black’s classes as they were exploring physics through rockets. Not only was it a fun and engaging lesson, but we also got to enjoy some sunshine in the process!

This coming week we have conferences Wednesday night, and all day Thursday. As a result, there is no school for students on Wednesday or Thursday. 

Upcoming dates:
Conferences - 2/16 and 2/17
No school for students - 2/17, 2/18, 2/21, and 2/22
