Halloween Events

Once again we are encouraging families to bring a jack-o-lantern for our Jack-o-Lantern display.  The jack-o-lanterns will be displayed in the Learning Commons this year.  It is always great to see the wide variety of designs.  

The students are already getting excited about the Halloween Events.  There is a great deal of talk about what their costumes will look like.  Students are welcome to wear their costumes for the entire day.  Remember that there is a NO WEAPON policy.  That includes plastic and foam looking weapons as well.  Please leave all weapons at home.  In the afternoon students will be divided into cross grade groups and they will circle through a variety of stations. We will be having the Halloween Costume Parade at 2:45.  Parents and siblings are welcome to join us in the gym for the parade.  Don't forget your costume!

Parent Teacher Conferences

Thank you to all of the parents that came out to parent teacher conferences.  We had an 80% turn out.  Research shows that family engagement matters for student success.   This engagement takes the committed actions of both families and the schools working together. Please remember that if at any time you have any questions or concerns about your the teachers and/or myself would be more than happy to discuss those with you.  

A Busy Past Two Weeks

Board Visit

On October 9th our Superintendent of Schools, Dr. Yanitski, and the Board of Trustees came to New Humble Centre for a visit.  The group was toured around the school by three of our students.  They took time to visit each class.  While in the classes, they asked the students questions about Black Gold School District and handed out prizes to the students. The board is always pleased to see and hear about all of the exciting things that are happening at New Humble.

Weekly Update

Custodial Appreciation Day

Last Friday the students all wrote a note to Mrs. Lacey thanking her for the fabulous job she does keeping our school so clean.  

October 5th - 9th

It appears that we will be having a busy week here at New Humble Centre.  





Tuesday, October 6th all classes will be participating in a Fire Safety Presentation.  I am sure that your children will be coming home to remind you that it is time to check all of the smoke detectors and create an emergency plan for evacuating the house.  

Wednesday, October 7th is Early Dismissal so students will be getting dismissed at 2:30. Just prior to dismissal we will be having our monthly assembly.  Some well deserving students will be receiving 'Student of the Month' certificates for Respect.  Also, the class that kept their room the tidiest will win the 'Golden Garbage Can Award'.  

Thursday, October 8th our Superintendent and Board of Trustees will be touring our school.  They are always amazed by all the wonderful things that happen at New Humble Centre.
