Dear Haycock Families,
We celebrated Lunar New Year in lots of fun ways this past week. Thank you to the many parents who assisted and are providing activities for our students to honor and welcome in luck and prosperity for the new year.
We hope to see many of you at the upcoming PTA Bingo Night this Friday, February 7. There are two sessions- join us for one - 5:30 to 6:30 or 7:00 to 8:00 in the Haycock Cafeteria. This is a super fun night for the family every year.
Please note that our next 3 hour early release Monday is on February 24th. You will receive an email by the end of this week asking you to confirm your plans for your child for that day.
This week is School Counselor Appreciation Week. Please join us in honoring and thanking Ms. Lilienthal and Ms. Padgett for all the ways they support our Haycock students and families. ❤️
