Dear Hawley Parents/Guardians, Teachers, and Staff,


What a terrific start! Students have settled in to new routines. They have reconnected with old friends and have began making new ones. We have done most of our Safety Drills, the only one left is showing the students Evacuation Paths if we need to leave the campus. Fall Assessments are almost completed. Open Houses occurred and the Ice Cream Social is on the Horizon.


Buckle up, stay seated, and keep your hands and feet in the car at all times, as you read on to find out What's Happening at Hawley .....

It was terrific seeing the Parent turnout for Open House. Teachers shared Hopes and Expectations for the year. Parents learned about their child's day and ways that they can support. Hawley has a strong Home-School Connection and we value our Partnership with parents.

As parents come to Open House to learn about your child's classroom, we also want you to know what students do at Special. So at Hawley, we also have a Specials Open House!

It is Wednesday, 9/30, 5:30-6:30 PM. Click HERE for more information and to sign up.

Mr. M was visiting a second grade classroom.

" Can kids come to Open House tonight? " a student asked

" No, it is an evening for adults so they can learn about what you do all day. " Mr. M replied

A friend added, " Yeah, we already know what we do so it would be boring.
