A Note From the Principal
I am so proud of all of the achievements and accomplishments of our students here at Meadowbrook Elementary. It's been an amazing year. Thank you for your partnership and support.
We've had so many great memories to look back on. We continued many successful traditions such as our family nights, thanks to our PTO, book fairs, Field Day, Grinch Event, Spooktacular, Color Run and many more heartfelt memories.
Our year ended with wonderful student and staff accomplishments and I am proud of our students' successes academically and socially. I too am proud of our parents' involvement at Meadowbrook; whether it's volunteering in a classroom, stopping in to have lunch or just a visit in the office. I am proud to share that we had 98% parent participation for Parent Teacher Conferences. Way to go! I look forward to another successful year serving you and our school community.
Kind regards,
Claudia Orr, Principal

Volunteer Opportunities & Field Trip Chaperones
The school year is ending, but now is a great time to become an approved volunteer for next year! Come into fall approved and ready for field trips and other volunteer opportunities!
- Anyone interested in volunteering must go through the approval process that includes a background check.
- More detailed information will be shared by your student's classroom teacher regarding the details of the field trips but we encourage you to begin this process now.
- If you think you may already be approved but are unsure, please contact Tricia Gower at: tricgowe@hssdschools.org to look up your information.
- This process only needs to be completed once by an individual while your child(ren) are in the district.
- Apply Early! This process can take up to a month to complete while we wait for the results of the background check from our 3rd party vendor.
- Below is PDF with instructions with screenshots of each step of the application process.
The link below is where you'll find the information on how to set up your HSSD volunteer profile and begin this process. https://www.hssdschools.org/community/vip
1. Once you follow the link, scroll down to where it says "Get Involved" under the Volunteer Login section. Click on that and more instructions will appear.
