At the meeting last night, the @washcovaschools Board voted to close schools on March 5, 2024 to accommodate election officials as they administer the Presidential Primary. Not quite as exciting as a Snow Day, but still important information!

Our wonderful bus drivers at HPES!
Since winter is upon us, we wanted to let you know that we will be offering childcare on days that we have a delayed start (for example, 2-hour delays due to inclement weather). We recognize that schedule changes are a challenge for working parents, so we are excited to be providing childcare free of charge for families who wish to participate. If/when we have 2-hour delay days and you want to utilize our childcare service, you will need to bring your child to school because the buses will not run early on those days. We ask that you come in the school office to sign them in. We open daily at 7:40AM. Please call the school if you have any questions or need more info.
We heard that Allison Egan is on Santa’s “Nice List” this year! She has been chosen as the HPES 2023-2024 Teacher of the Year!

On Tuesday, HPES First Grade hosted their first annual Charlie Brown Thanksgiving feast! The kids had a great time learning about Thanksgiving traditions and how to set a table, and they loved sharing Thanksgiving with their friends/classroom family!
