Thankful

As you know this is a short week due to the Thanksgiving Break, which makes the theme of this post fitting.  I would like to stop and thank everyone in the HBB community for making my first few months here memorable.  I feel privileged to be a part of such an incredible community.  I have been continually impressed by the dedication of our PTA and parents and the commitment and hard work of our staff.  Lastly, thank you to all the students, who make coming here everyday something I look forward to!  I hope you enjoy your break and take pause to reflect on everything you are thankful for as well.

Here are just a few of the things I have been thankful for recently.......

Thank you for helping us join forces with Nichols Middle School in collecting 500 pounds of Candy to donate to children at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.

Thank you for donating so many items to the Children of Union Beach New Jersey that we had to stop taking donations early!!!!

And thank you to all the High School Athletes who came down on Friday to help promote Healthy Eating.

Please enjoy break and remember, Bill Harley will be here the week we get back.  For those who don't know Bill Harley he is a two-time Grammy award-winning artist, recipient of a Lifetime Achievement Award from the RI Council for the Humanities and an NPR commentator.  Bill’s songs and stories paint a vibrant and hilarious picture of growing up, schooling and family life.....just another thing I am looking forward to and thankful for!  (see our calendar below for specifics on dates of his visit)
