Week of April 16th

Image result for 4th quarter fromm

Happy Friday! It has been a busy week. A huge shout out to Mr. Forker, Mrs. Marty, and the rest of the team that helped to make the House Ceremony a success. It was a great way to end the day. The students were well behaved and had a lot of fun. Next week we will begin testing. Another huge shout out to Mr. Forker and his testing team for ensuring that we are all prepared and ready to administer the test! Remember that it is important to be present at work and on time! No personal leave will be approved during the time of testing. 

With all of the shout outs for Mr. Forker this week, it is impossible not to show appreciation to him in honor of Assistant Principal's Week! Mr. Forker, thank you for the work that you do to help Hilsman operate successfully everyday! YOU are important to Hilsman and know that not a day goes by that you go unnoticed! We appreciate you sir!

Although we are testing next week, please remember to continue delivering instruction. Observations will be conducted and hopefully finished before the end of next week. We are asking to please remain firm, fair, and consistent! Discipline is important to us however if it is not a tier 4 incident, I am asking team leaders to please intervene before calling for an administrator. Stay Strong and hold up four fingers! It is almost over! WE can do this! Cheers to a great weekend and hats off to a terrific testing week! See you all Monday!

Also, please continue to support our team efforts and pay $5.00 to wear your jeans on Fridays! The RFL fundraising app also takes credit cards!

From Ms. Hughes: 
In today’s world, one of the best things we can do for our school and students is to teach, foster, and celebrate kindness. Kindness has been proven to support student achievement, better school climate, and reduce discipline issues.
That’s why our school is participating in the Middle School Kindness Challenge.

By accepting the Challenge, we will become part of a new and growing movement of educators, students, and concerned citizens everywhere who are making kindness commonplace for every student in America.
To meet the Challenge, we need at least 50% of our school’s teachers and specialized instructional support personnel (e.g. counselors and social workers) to participate.  Every adult at Hilsman can register for the Kindness Challenge.  We need all of you to make our 2018 Kindness Challenge a success!
Thank you for signing up. You will be receiving more details on our Challenge soon!
Yours kindly,

Your Kindness Captain Team (Forker, Hughes, & Moore)
