Hereford BULLetin

This week is National School Lunch Week, and I want to take a minute to celebrate our awesome Food Services team! Each day, Ms. Price and her team do an outstanding job feeding lunch to 1,100 hungry teenagers in only 2 hours!! Not only do they serve lunch, but they also serve breakfast each morning. They greet our students with a smile every day, and are such an important part of our school team. Please be sure to have your student thank our Food Services team!

This year, we celebrate American Education Week during the Week of November 16-20. Nationally, Tuesday, November 17th is recognized as Family Day, and as such we will again invite parents to come visit their child at school. Like last year, we ask that you RSVP (use the link below) so that we can make sure we have enough chairs in the classroom for everyone that comes to visit.

This past weekend, members of the For Our Troops club visited BWI Airport to participate in an Honor Flight. They honored and recognized a group of veterans who were visiting from Buffalo, NY. Below is a picture from the event and a link with more information about the Honor Flight Network.

Mr. Crawford and members of ITS took a field trip to the PA Renaissance Faire. The students competed in an acting competition where they performed a portion of the Shakesperean play, A Midsummer Night's Dream, and they finished 4th! Great job to everyone who participated!

Don't forget to support the OneLove student organization by buying a flower for a loved one. The sale has been extended through Sunday, October 18th. See below for how to order.
