Dear Community:
This week we came together to celebrate our sixth grade graduates! Congratulations to our seven graduates! We wish them well in their next schools and look forward to hearing how they like 7th grade! And, on Thursday, we also celebrated our rising Kindergarteners and First Graders! Congratulations to ALL of our graduates!
Smocks for our students: We are looking for anyone who can sew to help with a project to turn t-shirts into smocks for art next year. We have various size t-shirts and some velcro. The project would involve cutting the shirts up the back and then sewing a velcro closure on the back of the neck. Please email Carolyn Hawthorne if you are able to sew some smocks this summer. chawthorne@hr-k12.org. Stop by the school for the supplies.
Ice Cream Social for Our Whole Community in gratitude for your support for Screen-free Days in May. We invite the community to the school on Monday, June 26 around 12:50-1:30 to enjoy a quick sweet treat with your student/s and all of us on our last full day of school! Please text or call Nurse Meg to plan for dietary differences.

Reminders from Nurse’s Office:
Please send your child to school with a WATER BOTTLE. Let’s make sure our students are well hydrated now that the warm weather is here!
● If your child is going to be absent or tardy, please cc mbreymann@hr-k12.org and louellet@hr-k12.org.
● If you have a health concern about sending your child to school, you may reach Nurse Meg by text at 413-320-8172 or email at mbreymann@hr-K12.org before 7:00 a.m. and until 7p.m.
● During school hours, Nurse Meg can be reached at 238-5856 extension 1.
● Sunscreen and sunglasses. If your student needs repeat applications, you may
send sunscreen with their name on it, and if you let me know, I can help to apply it.
● I have KN95 masks if anyone wants them for any reason. If you can adjust them to
fit securely, they will protect against wildfire smog when you are outdoors.
● Still ticks EVERY DAY! Continue TICK CHECKS every night.
