Check it out here: www.hfespta.weebly.com 2016/2017 Open Houses - Super important need for volunteers! Our open houses for 2016 and 2017 have been scheduled and they are 11/4, 12/2, 1/6, 2/3 and 3/3 from 8:30 - 9:30 AM. This is a time for families from the HFES zone and those considering magnet seats to come and meet Principal Rodd, tour the school, meet parents and learn about HFES and the awesome program we have. One HUGE component to the success of these Open Houses is to have current families attending to share why they send their kids to HFES and how their child is doing. It sends a big message to prospective parents that there are other families who are engaged and excited about HFES. Please sign up online here for the Open Houses that you can attend - thank you! School Pictures - 10/6/16 - Don't Forget! Order forms and information for school pictures were sent home with students last week. Pictures will be taken on October 6, and students are not required to wear uniforms for school pictures. The completed picture forms need to be sent in no later than Thursday. These pictures will also be featured in the student yearbook available for purchase in the Spring. IB Parent Night - 10/6 from 6-7PM Learn more about the IB program and sample some delicious Enderly Coffee! Enderly Coffee Fundraiser - Starting October 10! Our first fundraiser of the year will start in October! We will be selling Enderly Coffee - a local coffee company started by two local teachers. Information will come home to you before the 10/10 start date. This fundraiser will help raise funds to continue our beautification efforts and for new soccer goals. You can sell coffee to your friends and family or purchase for gifts. There will be opportunities to purchase cups and mugs as well. See more information here! School Beautification Work Day - 10/8/16 - Stay tuned for inclement weather plan! We need volunteers on Saturday, October 8 from 8:30 - 11:30 to continue our work around campus. Projects will include general clean up and landscaping around the school and a few indoor projects. We will notify of any changes due to inclement weather on our FB page. Contact Virginia McNamee if you would like to help or have questions at [email protected]. Early Dismissal - 10/12 @ 12:15 Students will be finishing the day at 12:15. If your child rides the bus, they will home as normal. If your child is a car rider, please be at the car rider lane no later than 12:15. Please try to limit earlier dismissals if possible. Students need at least 210 minutes of instructional time to be counted present for the day. HFES appreciates your cooperation in making dismissal a smooth process. Boo Boo Central - Band-aids STILL Needed! Did you know that our school nurse used 5000 Band-aids last year? Wow! That is a a lot of boo boos! As you are shopping this week and next, please consider picking up a box of band-aids (100 or more in box) for our nurse. They can be any brand or off brand except for those at the Dollar Store as those do not stick. She is also looking for Aldi Brand Snack sized ziploc bags and boxes of tissues. Please bring your band aids with you to school marked with a note that says "For Nurse" and give it to your teacher. Donations can also be dropped off in the front office. PTA Meetings Our board meets the 1st Tuesday of the month from 4:00-5:00 in the media center. These meetings are business in nature and are a time for each officer and committee chair to share progress and updates. Larger school-wide PTA update meetings will be held in conjunction with scheduled school wide events. We still have a need for a few officers and committee chairs. Please take a moment to send in your questionnaire for the PTA or sign up online here.
