 Hello Mustangs Families!
I hope you all enjoyed your Labor Day weekend! We’ve had a fantastic start to the school year, and I’m thrilled about the events PTA has lined up—movie night this Friday at 6pm. Our goal is to create fun and enriching experiences for our children, but we can’t do it without your support!
We need volunteers, sponsors, and members to help make these events a success. Together, we can create amazing opportunities for our kids in a safe and welcoming environment. Mark your calendars to join us in our first general PTA meeting of the year on September 18th. We're working on options to make it easier for families to attend, more details coming soon.
Some of the events we organize include skate and bingo nights, Lego League, math clubs, and so much more. Your membership and donations directly fund these programs.
One initiative I’m particularly excited about is our after-school Spanish language classes. Learning a new language can open up a world of opportunities for our kids! Classes will be held twice a week, and we need at least 12 students to sign up by Friday, September 6, for the class to proceed. Limited scholarships are available. If you have any questions, I’m here to help.
We also offer a variety of other after-school classes through Baroody—check them out below! We’ve heard your feedback about afterschool, and we’re actively addressing them as we observe and improve throughout the year.
I look forward to meeting everyone in our HWES community as we work together to create a vibrant, supportive environment for our kids.
Looking forward to an amazing year together and meeting each of you!
