Hexter Family,
Thank you to everyone who joined us for the fabulous KayCee Pool Party! In this heat, I cannot think of a better place to gather as a school community. It is always wonderful to see Trustee Micciche—and especially fun to see him in his bathing suit!
The pool party also served as the official launch of our PTA membership drive. Thank you to everyone who has already joined! PTA membership dollars have a tremendous impact on our school, supporting everything from teaching assistant salaries, our garden and mindfulness teachers, and field trips to school supplies, the food pantry, staff meals, and so much more. Your membership directly enriches the experiences of our students and staff.
This Wednesday, we will celebrate that Attendance Matters with a favorite-decade dress-up day. Students and staff are invited to represent their favorite decade while reinforcing the importance of being at school every day.
Thursday is North Texas Giving Day and our first PTA meeting of the year at 6:30 p.m. During the meeting, I will recognize the staff members in attendance and share curriculum resources that families can use at home to support students in reading language arts, mathematics, and science. I hope you will join us!
We are also continuing to move forward with playground improvements. I met with Dallas ISD Maintenance and Operations, and the district will raise the end basketball goals to the regulation height of 10 feet. I will also walk the playground with the team to identify the best locations for a new slide and additional swings.
We have an exciting week ahead, and I look forward to seeing our Hawks and their families throughout the week!
Thank you for your continued partnership and support of our students and school community!
One Team, One Dream
