K-4 Minimum Session Day Reminder Tomorrow

Don't forget to check the Lost and Found before the Thanksgiving Recess!

Reminder that today is a Minimum Session Day for students and staff!

On Friday, we were incredibly grateful to host Author Ralph Shayne for students in grades 5-8. The book, Hour of Need, is a graphic novel about the daring escape of the Danish Jews during World War II. Thank you to the HSA Author Author Committee. Students were engaged and asked our author some excellent questions!

Veteran’s Day means learning about what a Veteran did to protect our country and keep us safe. 5th graders write cards to thank them for their service.

As a reminder, Monday, October 9th is a 12:45pm dismissal for all students.

Don't forget - the Chuseok Festival takes place tomorrow at 4 PM in the Big Gym! We hope to see you there!

What a wonderful way to start the morning at HPS with our Chuseok Festival performances for the school! Thank you to the KPA for organizing and a job well done by all the students who performed! Be sure to come to the community performances this Saturday at 4!

At last night's Board of Education meeting, the Board thanked and honored our recent retirees for their many years of service and dedication to the district! Congratulations and thank you to Ms. Corriston, Ms. Dever, Ms. Sabo, Ms. Fredette, Ms. Qualls, Ms. Turrin, and Ms. Srivastava!

Today began at HPS with the entire school observing a moment of silence for the 22nd anniversary of 9/11, honoring all those who lost and gave their lives that day. Never Forget.

Lots of fun happening at the HPS tent at Town Day today! Stop by and check it out until 4 today!

Friday Dismissal Follow Up The severe weather that moved in rapidly this afternoon caused us to adjust dismissal procedures with limited time. Given the severe storms and local flooding we decided to keep the students in our APR and large GYM until they were safely picked up. We understand for families this caused a change to your afternoon pick up routine, but we thank you for your cooperation and patience. As always, safety is our top priority. We especially want to thank the Harrington Park staff many of whom stayed until after 4 o’clock until all students were dismissed. We hope everyone is home safely. Jessica Nitzberg Principal
