Mrs. Nunnery's News

Hi Everyone!

We have a lot going on in the next few weeks, here is a sneak peek!

Next Tuesday, 11/22 will be our Science Fun Day. Hopefully you have seen the bright green sheet with all of the details. If you need a new one let me know. The cost is $24, please turn this in by this Friday, 11/22.

You may have read in the weekly Dolphin Dispatch about our new approach to the end of semester Celebration of Learning. On Friday December 13th from 1:00-2:00 we invite you to come to our class and look at student work from this semester. Each student will  choose a piece of work to showcase and write a reflection about why it is their favorite, what they are most proud of, etc.

Tomorrow and Wednesday we will take the first round of NC Checkins for this year. These are assessments created by the NC Department of Public Instruction  to see what objectives students have mastered and what they need extra support with. These tests are similar to the EOG's, but not as long. As always, PLEASE make sure your child's computer is FULLY CHARGED for these assessments. 

Now that the weather is turning colder, please make sure your child has a coat, jacket, sweatshirt, etc for recess. As long as the windchill is above freezing and it isn't raining we make every effort to go outside.

HES Dolphins helping others - Giving Tree

WOW - DOLPHINS FAMILIES YOU ARE AMAZING!  We have had two trees full of giving tags already claimed and there are still more available. Spread a little cheer this holiday season by adopting a tag from the HES Giving Tree. Our Giving Tree will be open for selection on Friday, November 8th. Each tag represents a wish item or a clothing item for a student in need. The Giving Tree is located in the HES main office. Only adults should choose a tag from the tree. Mrs Creech, School Social Worker, is available to help families select wish items through phone or email.  All items should be returned to the main office by Thursday, December 5th. Donations of walmart or grocery store gift cards are also appreciated. beth.creech@orange.k12.nc.us or ext. 25067.  #dolphinshelpingothers
