Hanawalt Community
Get Ready to Register for Clubs
Registration opens Friday at 6 p.m. for the 2nd session of the Soaring Hawks After School Enrichment Clubs! Clubs are free and will be held Dec. 2 to Feb. 7 (clubs meet only when school is in session).
Tips for registration success:
Update your information. Make sure your student’s current grade for 2024-25 is reflected in the registration system.
Double-check the age/grade requirements for your desired club.
Register early! Some clubs fill within minutes of registration opening.
Sign up for no more than 2 clubs.
Help your Hanawalt community by volunteering to provide rides home to other children. This important role helps keep clubs available to all students.
Make sure your student is available for all club dates. No changes can be made after registration closes.
To register, go to https://dmps.revtrak.net/Community-Ed-Classes and click on Soaring Hawks After School Program.

Donations are being collected through December 6th and gifts will be presented during the annual holiday staff party. To donate:
- Put cash or a check (made payable to Hanawalt PTA) in an envelope labeled "Holidays at Hanawalt" and drop it in the front office or with a car line volunteer.
