Hawk Family!

As we welcome the start of summer, I want to take a moment to thank you for your continued partnership throughout this past school year. Your support, encouragement, and involvement have been essential in helping our students grow, learn, and succeed.

This year has been filled with academic achievements and meaningful connections. Whether it was through classroom learning, school-wide events, or extracurricular activities, our students demonstrated resilience, curiosity, and a strong sense of community.

As we head into the summer months, I encourage all families to take time to rest, recharge, and enjoy quality time together. Summer is also a wonderful opportunity for students to continue learning in fun and engaging ways—through reading, exploration, math fluency (flash cards) and hands-on experiences.

To our families who will be moving on from Hexter Elementary, whether due to relocation or your child’s transition to a new school—we want to say a heartfelt thank you. You will always be a part of the Hexter family, and your presence here has made a lasting impact. We will miss you and wish you all the best in the exciting journeys ahead.

To our returning families, we look forward to welcoming you back in the fall (AUGUST), refreshed and ready for a new school year together.

A few important notes as we prepare for the next school year:

• First Day of School We look forward to welcoming students back on August 12.

• Meet the Teacher: Save the date for our Back-to-School Night on August 7.

• School supply lists are shared on our website and linked here.

Our school office will remain open Monday-Thursday until June 25, 2025, and we’re here to assist with any questions you may have. Please don’t hesitate to reach out by phone or email.

Thank you again for being such a vital part of our school community. I wish you and your family a safe, joyful, and refreshing summer.
