November 2017 Newsletter
These beautiful fall days remind us all that we have so much to be THANKFUL for. We live in a wonderful community that supports our children and their education! There are exciting activities going on in the classrooms, and everyone is working hard to challenge students to reach their potential and improve student achievement.
Halloween was a great event at South! Thank you to all the room parents who volunteered for our Halloween parties. Everyone had a spooktacular time!
Looking into November, we have the end of the first trimester, report cards, and conferences. We look forward to meeting with each of you to discuss your child’s progress. At conferences, be sure to visit the book fair in the main hallway. A portion of the proceeds from the sale allows us to buy new books for our library.
Ever wonder what the classrooms are really like? If you are interested in seeing your child in the classroom, please come visit us on American Education Week’s Parent Visitation Day – Wednesday, NOVEMEBER 15, 2017. See the schedule in the box below.
Thank you again for your continued support. As always, if you have any questions or input, please do not hesitate to call or e-mail me. I can be reached at martinj@hawthorn73.org or (847) 990-4800.
All the best,
