PRINCIPAL’S MESSAGE: Jan. 30, 2006

Career Day Minimum Day
On February 17, Hall students will enjoy Career Day, a biannual event that exposes them to career options. The students’ day will end at 1:00pm. Students will attend five Career Day sessions and then have a short debrief. The minimum day will allow staff to meet to continue our work on classroom recon-figuration for next year. Please mark your calendars and make arrangements for a 1:00pm student release that day. The bus will accommodate this early dismissal.

Graduation Schedule
The last day of school will be Thursday, June 15. It will be a minimum day schedule. The dates and times for graduation and related activities have changed, so please mark your calendars.

The following events will be on Thursday, June 15
• 8th Grade Awards Assembly (8:45 – 10:00am)
• Graduation Ceremony (3:00 – 4:30pm)
• Graduation Dance (8:00 – 11:00pm)

In several weeks I will be sending out a letter reiterating all of the requirements to participate in graduation and outlining all of the activities of the last week of school.

Word Power
Last week, Hall held its first ever Word Power Challenge. Seventh grade teacher, Linda Wolfe, coordinated the classroom competitions and conducted the final rounds. Word Power is sponsored by Reader’s Digest and provides an opportunity for students to expand and improve their vocabulary. I am proud to announce each of the grade level Word Power champions:
• Sixth Grade:  Ian
• Seventh Grade:  Keira
• Eighth Grade:  Lexi

Congratulations to the three champions and to all of the students for participating.
— Daniel Norbutas
