Pool Party, New Teachers, and Save the Date!

Happy Summer HBB!  I hope everyone is enjoying their summer and staying cool. Speaking of staying cool, we found a great way to stay cool this summer, this past Monday we had a GREAT time at our first ever HBB Pool Party!  We had a pool party for all the students who won the Character Word of the Week award for the second half of the year and we had about 160 students RSVP.  We held the party at the Town Pool and we had soooo much fun!

Thank you very much to Mr. Cass from the Middleboro Park Dept. for allowing us to use the pool at no cost and thank you to Mrs. Farley for all your assistance in making this celebration a reality! We are really looking forward to doing this again next year!

For those interested Middleboro has an awesome town pool and it is a great way to beat the heat of summer.  At only $2 per day per person or $75 for a family pass it is a great way to stay cool this summer.  For those interested in more information check out their website!

Here are a few pics from the party.......

Welcome New Staff

As many of you know we have some new staff coming on board for next year and we are very excited about our new additions.  I know some of you are waiting to find out the names of our new teachers as it may have said TBD on your child's report card.  Well our new additions are.........

Grade 1 - Leslie Sharkey

Grade 3 - Samantha Fecteau

Grade 5 - Vanessa Vigna

Grade 5 - Keeley Lombardi

Special Education - Aubrey Adams

We are extremely excited to get all of our new teachers on board and I am confident that you will be very happy with all our new additions as well.  I hope as the year starts and you get a chance to meet our new additions you will make them feel as welcomed as you made me feel last year!  

I would also like to take a moment and wish a few of our staff good luck as they take the next step in their careers and life.

Good luck to Mrs. Gates who will fill the newly created role of ELA Coach for grades 3-5

Good Luck to Mrs. Lakey as she will fill the open Title One Reading Specialist position.

Good Luck to Mrs. Donoghue and Mrs. Caradimos as they are both retiring after MANY years of dedication to the children and families of Middleboro.  You will both be sorely missed!

Save the Date

In closing I would just like to ask that everyone save the date for our annual Walk-through which is scheduled for August 28th at 10 am.  For those new to HBB the Walk-through is a great way to tour the building and your child's class  before school year starts.  Teachers are not there as they are not back from their summer breaks but the building will be completely open and myself and Mr. Gobeil will be there to answer questions.  We hope to see you there and remember, the Walk-through is a great way to allow your child to shake off some of the first day jitters!

Please remember, as the summer goes on, if you have any questions just give us a call!
