Dear Hawes Families,

SKATE NIGHT A HUGE SUCCESS: Thank you to everyone who came out for Stake Night last week. We had a great showing and parking was overflowing to the adjacent parking lot. What a great way to build school community for the new year. So many talented skaters at Hawes :)

SPIRIT DAY: We are looking forward to Student Council sponsored Rock Star Day on 1/23/26. This will also be our monthly student recognition assembly at 8:45 am in the lunch area. Please plan to join us in celebrating our amazing students.

BIKE SAFETY: For everyone's safety, please remind your child to wear a helmet and walk their bikes through the back park. A reminder that skateboards and scooters are not permitted at school. Thank you for your attention to this.

LOST & FOUND: Please remind your child to take home what they bring to school daily. In just five days we have accumulated 15 items of clothing with no names on them. Tank you for encouraging your child to be responsible with their belongings.

Both sessions will be recorded and shared on the TK/Kindergarten website for families who are unable to attend live.

In Partnership Always,

Dr. Fran Hansell
