However you may celebrate, we’d like to wish you and your families a wonderful time of being together. Thank you so much for the generous gifts that came in this morning. We were so touched by your thoughtfulness. As a mom of a child in grade school, I now understand and appreciate the time and thought that went into sending gifts this morning. Thank you for thinking of us. See you in 2016!

Money for bowling is due tomorrow, December 17th. The cost is $12. If your son/daughter is not going bowling, please keep them home on Friday. There will not be anyone here at Hype staying back.
2016 planners are available for $2. Every student should have purchased a planner at the beginning of the year, either one their own or from the classroom. If you purchased one from the classroom, that was for 2015 and you will need to purchase another one to cover the rest of the year. Please send money by January 4th.

Many of you have heard by now, that our beloved teacher, Debbie Haddix, passed away Monday evening. Many of our students had Mrs. Haddix in preschool, and left a lasting impression on their lives. A letter is going home to families today to the students who may have had Mrs. Haddix in the past. We will not be making an announcement in the classroom, as we would like to let our families handle it in the way they feel is best for their children. We are however, available to talk with students, share memories, etc. for any student who wishes to do so. It was an honor to be able to work with her for the past 18 years, and an even bigger honor to call her my friend. I will miss her more than words can say.
Funeral Arrangements are as follows:
Visitation – Martenson Funeral Home – Allen Park
Thursday 1-9 p.m.
Funeral – St. Frances Cabrini – Allen Park
Friday:
In State 9:30 a.m.

The date for Swimming at Hype (Wayne location) is December 1st, not December 4th as previously posted. Since that is TOMORROW, we will be sending home paper notes as well. This is an all day event, (9:30-2:30). Students who do not swim will be able to participate in other activities at the center. If you can, please text the classroom phone if your son/daughter will NOT be swimming, so that we can plan ahead.
Students will need the following for tomorrow:
Also, because of the change in schedule, we will reschedule the group that was supposed to go to Kerby’s Koney Island to another time, so that everyone gets a turn.
Thank you, and sorry for any inconvenience.
If everyone can bring in a picture of themselves with their family, and how they celebrated Thanksgiving, we’d like to put it on our Facebook page! You can send it in, or text it to our classroom phone number. Thanks!
We would like to wish all our students and their families a very Happy Thanksgiving!

Many of you may have heard about the latest “adult coloring” phase. Coloring can help combat stress and anxiety, as well as provide an enjoyable leisure activity. We have started to include this activity in our classroom about once a week. When we notice the students are especially hyped up, or unable to concentrate, we block out 30 minutes for this activity, turn on classical music, and silence the room. It’s a very enjoyable way for students to relax, and regain composure. That being said, students need colored pencils to keep in their backpack. Please send in box of colored pencils with your son or daughter by Monday, November 23rd. Thank you!
