Principals' Greeting
Hiteon Community,
Happy New Year!
We hope you and those you love found rest and time to spend together over winter break. As students returned to school on Tuesday, staff spent time revisiting expectations and routines after welcoming the students to the 2023 year. The stretch of time between winter break and spring break is a period of tremendous learning and growth for students. We look forward to continuing our partnership with families in supporting all student learning needs. Our first grading period will come to an end during the first week of February, however, do not hesitate to reach out to your child’s teacher should you have questions or concerns about learning goals and progress.
This month we have some exciting events at Hiteon! We hope everyone will consider putting our movie night on the calendar (January 27th) as well as consider attending the PTC/Principals Chat on January 19th. We are trying something new this month with our Principals Chat. We will have an in-person Principals Chat the half-hour before the PTC meeting. We will meet in the same room as the PTC meeting which is in the classroom closest to Davies (look for signs outside on the 19th. We also have a parent event to support our BSD Clothes for Kids. Parents are being asked to support this outreach by volunteering to sort and hang up clothes donated by our community at the Clothes for Kids location (16550 SW Merlo Road, Beaverton). Popcorn Friday, OBOB, and our Dine-out Fundraiser are also happening this month. Information about all of these events are in this newsletter.
We have waited a LONG time to get the chance to be together as a community and we are taking every opportunity we can to gather once again!
We are looking forward to seeing you!
Best Regards,
Janet Maza, Principal
Jenny Read-Emslie - Assistant Principal
ATTENDANCE MATTERS
HITEON'S DAILY SCHEDULE
7:45 - Doors open & Cafeteria opens for breakfast
8:00 - School promptly begins
2:35 - Dismissal
Attendance is very important to student success!
According to BSD policy absences that are not medical in nature, such as vacations, will be marked as unexcused absence.
Tardy: School begins promptly at 8:00am. Students that are not seated at their desk at 8:00am are considered tardy. Unless they are in the cafeteria having breakfast. Unfortunately, this means that students that are in vehicles in the parking lot are still considered late if they enter the building at 8:01am.
Early Arrival: For your child’s safety, students must NOT arrive at school before 7:45am there is no adult supervision prior to 7:45.
Dismissal: Again, for student safety, all students must be picked up from school at dismissal time 2:35pm. There is no supervision after 2:35. Unless the student is involved in a supervised after-school activity. Students who stay on school property past dismissal of 2:35pm must have parent supervision.
