Parents are welcome to come and cheer on our teams at the meet! Lunch will be served just as on a normal day of school. Make sure your child comes to school wearing the appropriate colors:

To the Families of Mrs. Wallace’s & Miss Augustine's Sixth Grade Students:

Hello! My name is Anna Doane and I will be replacing Mrs. Wallace for the remainder of the school year. I am so excited to finish the end of this school year with your children. I have worked in a number of classrooms here in the Hilton Central School District as a teacher, so I hopefully will be a familiar face for most of the students. I live in the Rochester Area and I am finishing my Master’s Degree in Literacy Education at Nazareth College.

Over this year I have grown incredibly fond of the Hilton Central School District. I truly feel as though I have been welcomed into this district whole-heartedly and I am honored to have been chosen to teach in this classroom for the rest of the year. Mrs. Wallace has worked tirelessly to ensure a smooth transition as she leaves to have her baby, and I am very confident it will be a success. She speaks so highly of your children, so I know I can expect the best from them. I am looking forward to making lasting memories with them as they finish their time here at Village Elementary!

If you have any questions for me now, or at any time within the next few weeks, please feel free to email me at adoane@hilton.k12.ny.us. Thank you, in advance, for your understanding and support during this time!

Sincerely,

Anna Doane

Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge

Please see the letter below around our Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge!

Dear Parent,

Did you know that when kids read over the summer they are likely to leap ahead when they head back to school? It’s called the “Summer Leap,” and our school has made it a priority to keep our students’ skills sharp by encouraging them to read all summer long.

Our class has signed up to participate in the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge, a free online reading program that invites children to log their reading minutes all summer. The goal is for the students in our school to read the most minutes possible in an effort to win “Best in State” recognition and a mention in the Scholastic Book of World Records. With your help, we can do it. We can WIN!

The fun begins on May 9, 2016, and ends on September 9, 2016!

I invite you to learn more about the Scholastic Summer Reading Challenge at www.scholastic.com/summer

If your child forgot his or her summer reading username, please contact:

Heidi Green hgreen@hilton.k12.ny.us

Cheryl Pellechia cpellechia@hilton.k12.ny.us

Have a wonderful summer!
