Stars, Stripes, and Gobbler PRIDE!
A Note from Your Proud Principal
Dear Hunt Elementary Families,
As the leaves 🍂 begin to fall, my appreciation for our Hunt Elementary families continues to grow! Your support and involvement make a difference in the lives of our Young Gobblers every single day.
I know life can get a little "batty" this time of year, but together, we can help our children learn, grow, and achieve great things! Keep encouraging them, celebrating their progress, making attendance a priority, and reading together each day. Every little effort makes a BIG difference!
I'm so thankful to "FALL" into each school day knowing we have such wonderful families partnering with us. Together, we will help our Young Gobblers soar! 🍁💚
In the spirit of Stars, Stripes, and Gobbler Pride,
Bridgette Cerny

Reticulated pythons are the longest snake species in the world and can grow up to 25 feet in length!
Six of our 2nd grade students equaled 25 feet in length! Wow!
Fun Fall Activities
