Week of September 25, 2016

Good evening parents,

Thank you for your support of the vision and mission at Hilsman. I appreciate your calls/emails regarding your concerns and thoughts about what is happening at our school. Please continue to express your concerns as they are helping us to to build an environment that is conducive to learning. Below you will find your news for the week.

Announcements:

Cookie Dough Fundraiser:

We are getting ready to launch a school wide cookie dough fundraiser at Hilsman! Everyone's help is needed for this to be successful. As many of you know, we are attempting to raise funds to support our PBIS Incentive Program at Hilsman. If every student sell 2 buckets of cookie dough, we could potentially raise over $5000.00! WE can do this. Fundraiser packets will be given to students Tuesday.

Here's the link for the Panther News -- it also contains the Cookie Dough Fundraiser promo video in it. ðŸ˜€


Can We Talk:


  • Can We Talk is an open forum where parents can meet with the administrators at Hilsman to discuss any questions or concerns about the school. The goal is to provide parents an opportunity to have a voice in the school. Please be on the look out for a new date and plan to attend. 

Safe Routes to School:


  • Save the Date: We will celebrate Walk to School Day on October 5th! We want to help spread the word about the many health and safety benefits of walking. 
You can get more information by visiting http://www.walkbiketoschool.org/.

Reminder:

  • We still have openings available for 6th and 7th graders for the Educational Talent Search (ETS) program with the University of Georgia. This program provides academic, career, and financial counseling while encouraging participants to graduate from high school and to complete their post-secondary education. This is a free program and meeting times are twice a month during lunch. Please turn in your applications to Ms. Moore in the Counseling Department.


The Pledge Against Gun Violence Poster Contest is here! Students should design a poster to pledge against gun violence. Awards are given to 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place winners. The contest will end October 14, 2016. For more information, contact SRO Johnson.

Picture make ups will be held October 7th. Students will need to be dressed in their Hilsman uniform.
