NOTES FROM THE HEAD OF THE MIDDLE SCHOOL
FOOD
DRIVE WRAPS UP
Tuesday we will be delivering our collected
food to Second Harvest. Food will be
loaded into trucks at 8:30 Tuesday. Half
of the Middle School will travel directly to Second Harvest to deliver the food
and work until 10:15. The other students
will go to the Colonial Park Cemetery to explore the significance of this
Savannah burial ground with Mrs. English.
An alternative rainy day activity is being planned if needed for the
Cemetery tour. At 10:15 we will swap
locations. Everyone will return to HDS
at noon for our Thanksgiving Feast.
EARLY
DISMISSAL TUESDAY
Students will be dismissed after the
Thanksgiving Feast to enjoy the holiday weekend. Pick up will be at 1:30. Students may remain until 3:00 if that is
more convenient for families. The Middle
School Team will have structured activities between 1:30 and 3:00 for students
who remain.
Following regular carpool policy, IF YOUR
CHILD WILL BE PICKED UP BY SOMEONE OTHER THAN HIS/HER PARENTS, WE MUST BE
NOTIFIED VIA A NOTED FROM HOME.
MIDDLE
SCHOOL CONCERT AND MALL PERFORMANCE
On Friday, December 5th, the
Middle School will present its holiday concert.
The festivities will begin at 8:30.
Following the concert the students will travel to the Savannah Mall to
sing in the food court. Students will need money to enjoy lunch at the Mall.
DRIVERS ARE STILL NEEDED FOR THE MALL
TRIP. We will depart for the Mall at
10:30 and return at approximately 1:30.
Please call or email Melissa Gordon (mgordon@hancockdayschool.org) to volunteer.
DECEMBER!
December will be a busy time finishing up our
first semester work. There will be lots
to cover and many assessments during this time.
ATTENDANCE THESE THREE WEEKS IS CRITICAL! There will many review sessions preparing for
quizzes, exams and the culminating first semester final examinations. Those missing school will be at a distinct
disadvantage. The final day of exams
will be Friday, December 19th.
Again, it is critical to be here until the final “bell” to have the best
opportunity to succeed. Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday, December 17th, 18th and 19th
are half days of school.
NO
ASSIGNMENT BLOG THIS WEEK. LOOK FOR THE
NEXT BLOG ON MONDAY DECEMBER 1ST
The holiday season is upon us. A time to relax and enjoy family AND a time
to plan for the conclusion of the first semester!
