REMINDER: “Stuff the Bus” Food Drive
Don’t forget, tomorrow we’re stuffing the bus with our donations for The Cleveland Food Bank. The bus will be parked on campus from 7:30am – 1:00pm and we will “stuff” it full of food and non-food items. The items most needed are beef stew, canned soup, canned vegetables, peanut butter, tuna, cereal, deodorant, laundry detergent, shampoo, soap, toilet paper, toothpaste and toothbrushes. Please be sure to check expiration dates on all goods. As always, thank you for your support!
Did you know that even the smallest gift to the Annual Fund can have a big impact? Every gift counts towards our participation rate. High rates of participation in giving impact HB’s ability to attract gifts and grants from foundations, corporations and other sources. When it comes to participation, the smallest gift is equal in impact to the largest gift! Have you made your contribution to this year’s Annual Fund? Please visit www.hb.edu/supportHB. For more information, you can contact Marcia Merritt at (216) 320-8796 ext. 7189 or mmerritt@hb.edu.
Dress Code Reminder
With the colder weather approaching many girls are choosing to wear tights and leggings more frequently. We reminded the girls but wanted to remind parents as well that tights and leggings should be a solid color. Many of the girls enjoy wearing footless tights especially on days they have dance class. Winter Expressions Classes (Starting January 21, 2014)
The winter offerings for Expressions are now available for viewing on the HB Primary School Parent Portal in the section under Prime Parent Resources -- After School Options. Printed copies are also available in the Prime School office. Please contact Siva Grossman at 216-320-8085 if you have any questions. Heritage Potluck Dinner
The Heritage Potluck Dinner is a celebration of the traditions of HB students, families, and faculty. The community comes together for multicultural food, entertainment, crafts and games. Whether your family has traced your roots or you love to watch a football game every week in team colors, this is a wonderful opportunity to share your family's cultural heritage and family tradition with the whole community. Attendees are welcome to wear clothing representing the traditions of their families. R.S.V.P. using our online form by January 27, 2014. Questions? Contact HeritageDinnerRSVP@hb.edu Help us Stay in Touch Around the Globe
In partnership with the Center for Global Citizenship and the Worldwide Communications Center, we have been able to share the experiences from all of our international trips through the use of global-capable Blackberry phones. Every Hathaway Brown School sponsored program over the past two years has been able to share their travels using Twitter on these phones. The program leaders and students have been able to communicate using Twitter as often as possible with the goal of being able to share their experiences during the trip. Technology has changed significantly over the past few years, and we are transitioning away from Blackberry phones and shifting to the Verizon Apple iPhone 5. These phones are unlocked and capable of accepting global SIM cards for voice and data. As many families already own iPhones and are starting to move to the new iPhone 5c and iPhone 5s, we are asking for donations of the used Verizon iPhone 5. If you are interested in donating a used Verizon iPhone 5, please contact Barry Kallmeyer (bkallmeyer@hb.edu) or Joe Vogel (jvogel@hb.edu). All donations will be acknowledged. |
