So Long, September!

We remain so proud of our Chanticleer family as we wrap up the first month of school this year. Our students, parents, and staff really know how to RISE, SHINE, and INSPIRE.

In the month of September, we crushed our school attendance goals, earned special incentives for following cafeteria procedures, and awarded hundreds of RISE tickets to students for being RESPONSIBLE, INCLUSIVE, SOLVERS OF PROBLEMS striving for EXCELLENCE.

Check out our webpage for our up-to-date school calendar and news posted in What's Happening at The Hill?  October is sure to be amazing!

Coming Soon: Backpack Blessings

During the month of October, we will begin a new initiative to support families at our school who may be faced with food insecurity. In partnership with The EPICenter at Mountain Christian Church Parkville, and in collaboration with SECU bank, we will be able to distribute small bags of groceries with kid-friendly snacks and meals to ensure that children have access to food over the weekend.

In the first week of October, families will receive a Community Schools Interest survey to indicate interest in participating in this and many more Community School initiatives.

Join the HHES PTA

Our PTA meets to plan events and get input from families and staff on the second Thursday of every month at 6 PM in the school library.

Spirit Days in October

October 5-9th is Bullying Prevention Week. Let's show our school spirit and commitment to ensuring that HHES  is a safe, inclusive learning space for everyone!

Rise. Shine. ATTEND... Every Day!

 

Learn with Me Schedule

We don't celebrate education one day during a week. We celebrate learning ALL YEAR at HHES! In the 26-27 school year, we have planned a year FULL of Learn with Me activities and workshops for parents and caregivers to come to Harford Hills.

Families that participated in September learned about the Social Emotional Learning programs and strategies we use at school and were able to make tools to support emotional regulation at home.

On October 9th, we will learn about how to make a learning environment at home. An invitation and RSVP will be sent to the school community through Talking Points.
