What's Happening??!!

Dear Hawley Parents/Guardians, Teachers, and Staff,

October has been terrific so far. We've had Student Pictures, Pumpkin Carving, Book Fair and Parent-Teacher Conferences.

Buckle up, stay seated, and keep your hands and feet in the car at all times, as you read on to find out What's Happening at Hawley .....

Last year, the students were challenged to raise a certain amount of money with our Fun Run Fundraiser. They exceeded the amount (Thank You). They earned a BMX Stunt Show.

We were rained out earlier in the month. It was rescheduled for THIS Thursday Morning.

Sounds Amazing; Can't Wait!!

Thursday, Oct. 26, 6:00-6:45 PM, in our Parking Lot is the PTA Trunk or Treat. You can decorate your car and hand out candy or bring your trick-or-treater down, in costume, for fun and to collect treats.

Right after, from 6:45-8:30, in our gym will be the PTA Spooktacular Party and Dance.

Please join us for these wonderful events. Click HERE to register a car or for more information.

Thursday, 11/2 is our next PTA Meeting. It is in our library, 4:30. Besides PTA Business, our Language Arts Consultant, Patti Vitarelli, will give an Overview of our new ELA Program (Reading & Writing).

Hawley's Motto is Work Hard and Be Kind. We are always on the lookout for Kindness. When an Act of Kindness (above and beyond expectations) is observed, we honor our students as they are putting the " i " in KIND!

These below students did just that assisting a friend using a GeoBoard, helping a friend clean up Work Stations without being asked, and helping a friend organize their desk.

Love Seeing This!!! We're always looking ;0)

Our Hawley Fathers Club held its Annual Pumpkin Carving Night. Always a fun family event. Great seeing so many Families participating.

• Pick Up Reminders: The end of our day has many moving pieces. Students are in classrooms, at special, receiving intervention/enrichment support, at extra recess, heading to bus lines or bus rooms. We discourage last minute changesnor pick ups between 3:10-3:30. If dismissal has begun, you may need to pick up using our regular system. Also, calls are best or emails to the office, not just teacher (grimaldim@newtown.k12.ct.us AND chernoffg@newtown.k12.ct.us).

Mr. M was eating a donut brought in by a staff member.

" Hey, I want a donut " said a youngster

" They are for the adults " Mr. M replied

" Not fair " added another student " Why can't we eat them "

" Mr. M shouldn't be eating it either " a colleague shared,

" Better hope Mrs. Moretti doesn't find out "

" That's alright, Mr. M " the student said, " My mom doesn't like me eating them either "
