Happy February:

We are starting this year well. Students are walking on the right side, getting to class, and making good use of their time. More students got to class on time in the month of January. Way to go!! Students who were Tardy to class after arriving to school served lunch detention and they had to serve it within 2 days. If students did not serve it within 2 days, they stayed after school for after school detention. Students are rewarded when they are "caught" making good choices. Staff are passing out FLY HIGH slips, then their name are put into a raffle for a weekly prize during lunch. Every month we will start over.

Cell Phone / Electronic Devices : Students using their cell phone, ear buds, and/or electronic device during school hours 8am-2:45pm will have to turn their phone into the office and family will need to pick up the before 3:30pm the first time.

Dress Code: I have to included the dress code poster for everyone to review. Most students have been great at this, thank you. If you have any questions about what is acceptable and what is not please get in touch with me. If you have some leggings or long shorts that you are no longer using, we will take them. Students put these under their ripped up jeans and then they are good to go. Thank you.

Parent Volunteers: If you would like to help during lunch time 10:30-12:30 or volunteer to help monitor the halls, please get in touch with me. We also have opportunity to help during sports (score keepers, timers, dance chaperones, and more). Email me your availability and times and days you are available.

Covid Return to Play: Students not feeling well should stay home and parents will need to call and excuse their child. School work can be accessed online through canvas and should be turned in as soon as possible. If you child tests positive with Covid and they play sports, they will need a Health Care provider to approve their return and then will progressively return to play before they can compete. (6 practices) Once signed then students can return to play and not beforehand.

Student Drop-off/Pick-up: Thank you to all the parents using the parent drop off South Entrance. Do not park or enter through the North entrance, as this is reserved for busses and staff. Please do not turn left when leaving Hanshew from 7:45-8:15am and again 2:30-3:00pm as this clogs up the traffic and it is hard for busses to get in and out safely.

Safety: Every month we will practice an evacuation drill, so please make sure students wear proper shoes and dress appropriately especially during these colder months. Students need to walk safely in the halls and outside near the busses.

Sports: Boys Basketball, Cross Country Skiing, and Native Youth Olympics is on for February. Please check out the schedule for each sport. If you have any questions, please let me know. Sport Schedule . NYO is still accepting student to join...its FREE and meets Monday's and Tuesday's 3-4:30pm.

Come watch Hawk sports but remember students must be accompanied by a parent/guardian who will supervise them and everyone spectating must wear a mask. Food and drinks are not allowed in they gym, unless it is water. Students cannot be dropped off. Show your school spirit and dress in Red and Black.

Sincerely,

Maria Humecky, AP
