Dear Haycock Families,
This year will go down as the most challenging of all my 25 years in education. That being said, I can't imagine being any other place this year than with our amazing Haycock staff and our remarkable students. We made it together and we have so much to look forward to being back five days a week in August!
I want to let you know of staff members who will be leaving Haycock. We are sad to see the following staff members leaving us: Ms. Margaret McGovern. Ms. Whitney Osborne, both 5th grade teachers, Ms. Julia Vans, 3rd grade teacher, Ms. Sue Butts, special education teacher, and Mr. Brian Fox, adapted PE teacher. They will be missed and I know you join me in thanking them for their service to Haycock and to our students.
As I contemplate next year with all its possibilities, I look forward to meeting, in person, those of you that I have not yet met and those of you I have only met virtually.
With appreciation for your partnership,
Dr. Liz Beaty

The boxes are then delivered directly to your child's classroom the week before school starts. No need to go to multiple stores to buy supplies.
