Notes from the office... Notes from the office...

Dear Huntington Families,

As we wrap up this month and head into Spring Break, we wanted to take a moment to thank each of you for your support this year. Your partnership means the world to us! March has been full of reading, learning, laughter, and so many bright moments from our students. It's been a joy to see our school filled with so much energy and enthusiasm!

We hope you and your family enjoy the upcoming break — whether you're relaxing at home, going on an adventure, or just soaking in some much-needed family time.

When we return in after break, we'll jump back into learning with renewed energy and excitement for the rest of the school year.

Before you go, be sure to check out the included Calendars. We have some exciting activities lined up, and we can’t wait to see our students back in action when school resumes.


Wishing you a restful, fun, and rejuvenating Spring Break!


Nicole Muñoz and Theresa Sexton-Grunwald

Calling all Kroger Shoppers Calling all Kroger Shoppers

The Kroger Family of Companies is committed to community engagement, positive social impact and charitable giving at the national and local levels. Every community is unique, but our common goal is to partner with the neighborhoods we serve and help the people there live healthier lives.

One of the ways in which we do this is through our Kroger Community Rewards program. This program makes fundraising easy by donating to local organizations based on the shopping you do every day. Once you link your Card to an organization, all you have to do is shop at Kroger and swipe your Shopper’s Card. Here’s how it works:


1. Create a digital account.

A digital account is needed to participate in Kroger Community Rewards. If you already have a digital account, simply link your Shopper’s Card to your account so that all transactions apply toward the organization you choose.

2. Link your Card to an organization.

Selecting the organization that you wish to support is as simple as updating the Kroger Community Rewards selection on your digital account.

1. Sign in to your digital account.

2. Search for your organization here.

3. Enter the name Huntington Elementary

4. Select the our school from the list and click “Save”.

Huntington will also display in the Kroger Community Rewards section of your account.

3. Huntington earns.

Any transactions moving forward using the Shopper’s Card number associated with your digital account will be applied to the program, at no added cost to you. Kroger donates annually to our school based on your percentage of spending as it relates to the total spending associated with all participating Kroger Community Rewards organizations.

If you have any questions, please contact Kroger's Customer Service Center.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day Happy St. Patrick’s Day

Safety Protocols for the 2024/2025 School Year Safety Protocols for the 2024/2025 School Year

School Hours are from 8:35 – 3:20


Students may not be dropped off more than 10 minutes before school starts.


Breakfast begins at 8:10. If students are dropped off at this time, he/she must go to breakfast.


School ends at 3:20. At 3:35, 15 minutes after school ends, all students should be off school grounds (including the playground). We have had too many incidents where students have not been picked up and we are not aware of the situation until all students have left which could be ½ hour after school has ended.



Middle School students will no longer be permitted to pick up their siblings from the elementary school. We had far too many incidents last year with extremely inappropriate language used as well as disrespectful behavior towards our parents waiting to pick up their students.


All students who have siblings at the MS and need to be picked up by MS students, will be walked by Huntington Safeties to a Meeting Spot at the MS after school. K-2 will meet their safety in the front lobby. 3-5 will meet their safety in the hallway behind the cafeteria, in front of the Maintenance Office. They will then leave with their siblings through the MS Auditorium Doors.


- For the safety of our students, NO DOGS ARE ALLOWED during drop off and pick up of students while you are standing outside.
