Principal’s Report (attached)
Reading Report
North Penn HS students came into Hatfield to read to the students. Reading Olympics is 3/18 at Souderton HS. The PSSA’s are in April.
Treasurer Report
Dining out at Panera Bread yielded $57. Total offsite dining made is $268. She received 2 more field trip reports. They discussed the request by the 4th grade for an assembly just for that grade that was used last year and was a big hit. The board approved the additional funds for the assembly.
President Report
The nurse called to see if we could provide some volunteers for the day the physicals will be done at Hatfield on 2/18.
Fundraiser Report
On 2/24 Hatfield pizza dining out night. We will also have Wendys, Chick Fila and a possible Margaritas dining out nights.
We will need a new fundraiser idea for the fall. Diane Kortz suggested moving the Hawk Walk fundraiser to the fall and make that the primary fundraiser. It was very well received and we will discuss this and other possibilities for smaller fundraisers.
Past Activities
K-3 night was a huge success and well attended (190 kids)
Yearbook Pics-April 8th pics will be done. Mary is thinking about doing a table at Beach Party to showcase the yearbook.
Future Activities
The lip sinc is 2/20. There are 13 acts. The kids have auditioned and they look great. There is no staff act this year.
Beach Party is set for 3/20 and Diane Minguez is running and will have a meeting this Thursday at 7. Volunteers will be needed.
Hawk Walk is scheduled for 4/24. It looks as though we may not have May Fair this year, so, we will have to come up with different incentives and prizes.
6th grade-Everything is running smooth and they are progressing nicely. Gifts have been picked and pictures are being collected.
Box tops are being collected and contest ends on the middle of this month.
