The Hayhurst Husky Howl
For the Week of September 25-29, 2023
For the Weeks of November 6 -17, 2023
Fairwell, Ms. Freese!
It is with mixed emotions that I share with you all the imminent departure of our Assistant Principal, Caitlan Freese. Caitlan will begin a new position as a SPED administrator through Northwest Education School District (NWESD) where she will be overseeing special education programming and speech language services across the four counties NWRESD serves.
Caitlan first began her service in PPS during the 2018/19 school year as a Special Education Program Administrator. She collaborated with 27 different schools during her three years as a PPS SpEd Admin supporting Learning Centers, SLPs, School Psychs, Paraeducators, OTs, and other special educators, with a focus particularly on the K-8 Communication Behavior program.
Caitlan has served as the AP of Hayhurst since August of 2021, where she helped transition the building back from the COVID-19 pandemic. We appreciate all of her contributions to the school and our community!
Please join me in congratulating Caitlan on the next step in her professional journey! Hayhurst is grateful for all you have done for our community.
We will be posting the position tomorrow. If you are interested in serving on a potential hiring committee, please email me at drebloom@pps.net.
Here We (still) Are...
I know there is a lot of apprehension over all of the questions that don't have answers. I wish I had any information to provide. I stand here in this uncertainty with you.
One thing we DO know is that we WILL come back. And we would love your input on how the first day should look. Please take a few moments to complete this survey.
I do believe there is a light at the end that will make us stronger as a community. In the meantime, I am in awe of your compassion, dedication, and support. Thank you. #We Are Hayhurst.
Hayhurst Foundation: Foundation FRIDAYS!
We are launching a new weekly event named Foundation Fridays! We are asking those that can to contribute $1 weekly to our Hayhurst Foundation. If half of viewers donated $1 to the Foundation every Friday when the newsletter hits your inbox, we would average $600 a month, or $4200 by the end of the year. Woo-hoo!!! That is all money that can go towards staff positions and programming!
If you can, please give here OR scan the QR code in the image.
The next meeting of the Hayhurst Foundation this year is Thursday, November 30 at 6:30pm. More information on the foundation can be found at hayhurstfoundation.org.
