Friday night we celebrated our annual HBB Big Blast and it was another great success. Thank you to the PTA for all your hard work organizing this great event and thank you to everyone who came out to support HBB. All the proceeds raised go right back to the kids at HBB funding things such as the After School Programs, Field Trips, Enrichment and the Family Resource Center. Thanks again!
After School Programs
We are thrilled to have our after school enrichment program up and running for the year! It is great to see so many kids staying after school excited to participate in academically enriching activities. This session will run for approximately 8 weeks and we will be running a second session after the holiday break, so be on the lookout for a second round of sign-ups.
For those of you who have a child participating we ask that you please pay very close attention to the calendar to see which days clubs are meeting. Pickup from clubs happens promptly at 4:30 pm.
Healthy Athletes
Friday was a busy day! Not only did we have the Big Blast but we also had some special guests during lunch! Athletes from MHS came during lunches to speak with the kids about the importance of eating healthy. Thank you to Mrs. Bagnell, Mr. Branagan and Mr. Perry for organizing this great event. Our kids really enjoyed eating lunch with our MHS Athletes!
Family Resource Center
When you get a chance please check out the website/blog of our new Family Resource Coordinator Meghan Quirke. The website is far from complete but Mrs. Quirke is working hard to develop a site that will be a great resource for parents and community members. Don’t be afraid to reach out to Mrs. Quirke here at the school. She definitely wants to hear from you!

Reading Challenge
Don’t forget about the HBB Reading Challenge. This is a great opportunity for students to earn their Reading Bead for their Burkland’s BEST Necklaces. Additionally……Students who participated in the Battle of the Books and finish this challenge will receive a Super Reader Bead!
Send us your candy!
We are once again collecting any unwanted Halloween candy! Morgan Derby, one of our previous students and a current NMS student, is leading the charge to collect Halloween candy which will be donated to the children at the Jimmy Fund Clinic at Dana Farber Cancer Institute. We will be taking the collections in the main office and we will accept donations until November 9th.
