A Note from Mrs. Mathe
As we enter this season of thanksgiving, I want to take a moment to share just how grateful we are for each of your beautiful children. They bring joy, laughter, curiosity, and energy into our halls every single day. Their smiles, their growth, and their unique personalities make Hines the special place it is—and we are truly honored to be part of their journey.
I am equally grateful for, our incredible families. Your support, encouragement, partnership, and kind words mean more than you know. Your generosity and willingness to work hand in hand with us make our campus truly one of a kind. We could not do this work without you, and we are thankful for the trust you place in us each day.
During this season of gratitude, I’d like to share a simple but meaningful way to show appreciation to our staff: sending a TAE. These notes brighten our staff’s day in a powerful way. We not only celebrate those who receive a TAE during our staff meetings, but their names also go into a drawing for a fun prize as an extra surprise. If you feel moved to recognize a staff member who has made a difference for your child or family, please consider sending a TAE—it truly means the world to them.
Wishing you and your family a joyful and restful Thanksgiving season.

Student Spotlight
We are excited to introduce a new section in The Hines Herald called Student Spotlight! This feature will celebrate the amazing achievements, acts of kindness, and positive contributions of our Huskies both inside and outside of school. In this section, we will highlight students who have gone above and beyond—whether it’s reaching a personal goal, helping others, or making a difference in the community. We can’t wait to share these inspiring stories and honor the incredible ways our students shine!
