Happy November, Hayward Families!

It has been an amazing first couple months of school. I have enjoyed getting to know more of our students and meet more of our families. If I haven’t had the chance to meet you, please come and introduce yourself when you see me!

One thing new for your student(s) this year is the Monday Minute. The Monday Minute is our student newsletter that goes at at the beginning of each week. It contains a variety of information for our students, but here are the main points:

• Mrs. Greenfield’s Message

• Weekly Weather

• Weekly Menu

• Hawk Birthdays

• Boys Town Skill

• DreamBox Update and Goals

• Mindful Breathing

• Zones of Regulation

The Monday Minute is meant to help us celebrate, provide information, and promote skills we are working on and able to use throughout our day.

Let’s have a great month, Hawks!

Mrs. Greenfield

Hello Hayward Hawk Families,

We have had a great start to our school year. The Hayward students and families continue to amaze me as we learn and grow together! I am proud to be here at Hayward and feel very fortunate to be given this opportunity to serve you all.

We have a few exciting events coming up:

- Nov. 22 - Parent Title 1 Breakfast

- Nov. 23 - 25 - Thanksgiving break

- Dec. 6th - Hayward Family Reading Night - Pizza Provided

- Dec. 13th - Hayward Family Math Night - Pizza Provided

We are really focused on attendance, reading, math, and school behavior this year. In regards to attendance, please continue to communicate with the office if your student will be absent and we will be celebrating those with great attendance! In regards to reading, we are committed to making sure all students are receiving reading small group instruction at their current reading level. We are always looking for volunteers to come into school and read with our children in both English and Spanish. In regards to math, we are constantly monitoring our student's current level of math understanding and working hard on any foundational math skill work that needs to be developed. In regards to behavior we constantly working on our Hayward HAWKS Expectations - H - Here; A - Accountalbe; W - Work Hark; K - Kind; and S - Safe. All staff members are expected to hand out HAWK tickets when we see students living up and demonstrating our HAWK expectations. Our students are learning the behavioral skills needed to be successful as they continue to grow.

I look forward to seeing you all at our upcoming events. It is hard to believe we are a quarter through our school year already!
