Hembree Springs Summer Scoop

Greetings Hembree Families,

I hope you are having a wonderful summer so far!

Our building is currently undergoing major renovations, and I’m told it is in the demolition phase and nearly unrecognizable inside. While this transformation is exciting, we are so grateful to be working at Vickery Mill this summer—it has been a perfect temporary home for our team.

Behind the scenes, we are hard at work preparing for a successful 2026–2027 school year. This newsletter is filled with important information, especially for those of you who love to plan ahead (like I do!).

As always, please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I want to make you aware that some of my recent emails have been mistakenly routed to junk folders. If you do not receive a response from me within 48 hours, please call the school office. Unless I am out on vacation, I will make every effort to respond promptly.

On a personal note, I’m looking forward to traveling to New York and New Jersey this weekend to celebrate a good friend’s birthday. I always enjoy any opportunity to go “home.”

My oldest son and daughter-in-law got a puppy back in December, and they’ve asked me to dog-sit for an entire week while they’re on vacation. I’m excited to have a dog for a week, though I admit I’m a little nervous about his boundless puppy energy. I’m hoping I do a good job!

I’m also preparing for a trip to Europe this summer. My husband lived there for several years as a child in Austria and Germany, so it feels especially meaningful. We’ll be taking a Viking cruise along the Rhine, and I’m very excited about visiting multiple destinations and experiencing the different cultures along the way.

I will be sending another newsletter in July with additional updates.

With Father’s Day coming up on June 21, I would like to extend warm wishes to all of our Hembree dads—Happy Father’s Day!

Wishing you all a relaxing and enjoyable weekend.

Best Regards,

Nancy Lahey

Check one more thing off your list. Skip the school supply kits and the back-to-school shopping trips! Instead, our PTA purchases and stocks the teacher workroom with supplies based on each grade level's list, then continues to replenish items as needed throughout the school year.

Since classroom supplies are typically pooled and teachers know best what their students need, this program helps ensure resources are available where they're needed most. This upcoming school year marks the third year of this successful program.

How to Support

Families make a $65 donation per student to help fund classroom supplies:

• 1 student = $65
• 2 students = $130

• 3 students = $195

Here is the link https://hembreespringselementary.givebacks.com/shop/items/ffe1fb6f41f7e3.

Please note that donations cover supplies for all grade-level classrooms but do not include supplies requested by Specials teachers.

Please see below for the school supply lists for this year. Most of the supplies will be pooled together schoolwide for teachers to access throughout the year. We thank you in advance for purchasing supplies for the students.
