HYMAN FINE NEWS FLASH
May 20, 2023
Good afternoon Hyman Fine Families,
It is so hard for me to believe we have so few school days left especially for our K students. The year is flying by so fast.
The Boosterthon is in full swing. Please continue to fund our biggest fundraiser of the year. Thank you to all of the generous pledges we have received so far. As of this afternoon my weather app is showing a beautiful sunny day for the 24th. As long as we can hold the event outside families are welcome to come cheer on our students. If the weather takes a change and we have to hold the fun run inside families unfortunately will not be able to attend. Information including grade level schedule is below in the PTO update.
End of year BOGO book fair is scheduled to run June 1st-9th.
The book fair will be open after the Kindergarten celebration and on Field Day
