This week, we had a fantastic time enjoying the many talents of our Hatch students. The 2022-2023 Hatch Talent Show was a huge success! Thank you to our talent show committee for all their hard work and hours of planning to make this special experience possible!!
Message from Hatch Library: It’s that time of year when we finalize collecting library books or fees. If families cannot locate or replace their Hatch Library books, we would happily relay the dollar amount required to get those balances back to zero before we kick off our summer break! :) You may pay for the books on Revtrak or replace the copies of the book (have your child return them to the Hatch Library with a post-it note on them so we know who is replacing their book!) Emails have been sent out with the books yet to be returned - but feel free to reach out to [email protected] if you have any questions.
Summer Reading - During library time, students have been learning about the Summer Reading Program at OPPL. Check out this slide deck for information on how to sign up for your child, and click here for more information and to register.
Ms. Stringham is looking for some supplies for her maker space area! She is specifically looking for K’Nex kits. If you want to donate any K’Nex kits or pieces to the Hatch library, email her at [email protected].
The PTO Board seeks volunteers to help during the 2023-2024 school year. We have an opening for TWO members for our Hatch After Hours program. Please email us for more information: [email protected]
Lost and Found items will be displayed by the main entrance next week (weather permitting.) Please stop by to collect any personal belongings before summer break! All will be donated on The Last Day of School at the End of the Day.
Yearbook: As yearbooks start rolling in, we will place them in teachers’ mailboxes periodically. If you would like to purchase a yearbook still, click here. *They will not arrive at the school in time for the end of the year.
As information, next week is the last week of Hepizbah and Apollo after school.
