FIELD TRIP If you did not see my email from Monday, we have an awesome opportunity for our November field trip to watch a play in Downtown Hillsboro, Lion King Jr! It is Monday, November 5. Meet at Hart Theater (185 SE Washington St Hillsboro, OR 97123) between 8:30-8:45. (NOTE, please do not drop-off your student at HOA, we will not have a bus for this field trip.) Pick up is at 10:15 at Hart Theater. Students will have the opportunity to walk back to HOA with Ms. Stubbs, if they will be attending Face-to-Face and PE. I have received rsvp's from many of you, thank you! If you have not already done so, please let me know as soon as possible if your student would like to attend and if you have any questions.
SPORTS CLUB Starting next Thursday, November 1, from 12:00-1:00 is our new Sports Club with Ms. Stubbs! Kids in grades 3-9 can come for PE at 11:00 and stay for Sports Club, or you can choose one or the other.

OLD NEWS*******************************************************************
THURSDAY PE CHANGE The Thursday PE class from 11:00-12:00 (that was originally just for grades 6-9) is now for grades 3-9. Please note that this is just for the Thursday class. Monday-Wednesday PE have not changed, please see below for next week's schedule.
ELEMENTARY CONFERENCES This year for conferences, I would like to meet with all first year HOA families, and returning families on a case-by-case basis. Reasons to meet with a returning family would be academic or behavior concerns, either on your part or mine. Since we don't need to wait until November, I would like to go ahead and start getting these one-on-one conferences scheduled. Be on the lookout for an email from me in the next few weeks. If you do not receive an email from me, but would like to make an appointment with me, please reach out.
FACE-TO-FACE CLASS The Face-to-Face class on Mondays from 11:00-12:00 is open to elementary students in grades 3-6, including homeschool. Students will start the class with class pledges and a mini-class meeting to discuss the events of the week. For the remainder of the time, teachers and assistants will be available to work one-on-one with students needing assistance in an Odysseyware course. Homeschool students should bring work from home or a book to read. Students should plan on arriving at 11:00 and staying the whole time. Parents are not required to stay. Please have your student bring a snack and their laptop.
ATTENDANCE POLICY Similar to the previous years, your student will still need 2 check-ins per week, each counting for 2.5 days. Things that count as check-ins are attendance at on-site activities, emails or messages from parent or student, face-to-face meetings, and phone calls. Any combination will work, just ensure that you get in two before the end of the week. If you have any questions about this, please let me know.
Have a great week!
