Hometown Family Buzz

Our school day ends at 3:20pm. Please be at the school to pick up your child at this time. Your children are counting on you to be out at the door they exit when they leave.

Please remember we have our first late start of the school year. Wednesday, September 6th, we will start at 9:30am.

We will postpone our first meeting of the year. When we have a new date we will share it with everyone.

You should be seeing a paper copy of the family math problem. Please take some time to complete the problem with your family. There will be prizes for families who complete these challenges.

Please make sure your child is coming to school with a charged chromebook.

Our open house will be on September 12 at 6:00 pm. There will be two different sessions if you have multiple children in the building. You will head to your child's classroom to listen to a presentation from the teacher about behavior, expectations, curriculum etc. Our encore teachers will also be available that night to meet and greet. Please join us before for an ice cream social hosted by the PTA from 5:45-6:45 pm.

Parents may NOT pull into the back parking lot to drop off or pick up students. You will be asked to move your vehicle. This parking lot is for staff only.

Here is district information about our systems approach. If your child will be attending these small groups, you will be receiving an individual letter.

We strongly encourage you to join our PTA at Hometown. We work together to provide many different events throughout the school year for the students. We always work with our volunteers to set them up for success. We will be offering all committee sign ups for trimester 1. Please consider joining this organization. The form is below.

Our students love to get ice cream on Fridays. Please read the flyer for more details.

Please use the flyer below to sign up for Goodies with Grandparents. Tomorrow is that last day to turn in the form. If we do not get enough participation we will be canceling the event.

We would like to welcome our new staff to Hometown this year by focusing on each one. Our first spotlight is on Miss Cerullo , our new third grade teacher. Let's learn more about her!

1. I’m an older sister

2. I like to collect autographed books by their authors.

3. I played Quidditch in college.

4. I’m back in school getting my Masters

5. In the picture below, that’s the biggest fish I’ve ever caught!

If you see Miss Cerullo in the hallway make sure to say hello! She joins Mrs. Sieracki and Mr. Carson in third grade this year.
