Today marks the unofficial end of the 4th
quarter. All student work should be
submitted for evaluation at this point or a plan in place with the teacher to
complete missing assignments.
YEARBOOKS
Yearbooks were distributed to the students
Friday. We are planning time on
Wednesday after the Spanish exam for students to sign each other’s books.
COMMUNITY
SERVICE
Please make sure that your community service hours
are recorded in our records. This can be
done by submitting a letter signed by either the parent or the supervising
adult describing the activity and the number of hours worked or by completing
the Community Service Form. The

celebrate the accomplishments of your children.
MIDDLE
SCHOOL COMMUNITY SERVICE
The Middle School students will work with the
Savannah Tree Foundation on Monday, June 1st at Hull Park (54th
Street @ Paulsen Street). This is the
second year we have supported the Foundation’s efforts to preserve our
trees. A complete description of the project

We will leave HDS after the Honors Assembly. Students should come to the Honors Assembly
in SCHOOL DRESS and bring a change of clothes for community service. Long pants and work gloves are
preferred. DRIVERS ARE STILL NEEDED to
take the students from the school to the park.
Please call or email Ms. Gordon to volunteer. We will not be returning to school after we

MIDDLE SCHOOL
END OF YEAR CELEBRATION
The students and Middle School TEAM will celebrate
the conclusion of our year with a Field Day at Skidaway Island State Park. There are two ways to get to the party. Students may be dropped off directly at the
park at 9:00. Simply tell the gate
attendant that you are dropping your student off and then leaving and there
will be no admission charge. We will be
located at Group Shelter. The second way
is to bring your child to school at the regular time. We will depart HDS using volunteer drivers at
8:45. ALL STUDENTS SHOULD BE PICKED UP
DIRECTY AT THE PARK AT 2:00. Again,
simply tell the gate attendant that you are picking up your child and there
will be no charge. Permissions slips will be sent home Tuesday or can be viewed here.
