HP Community,
As we wrap up this week, the HSA held the annual Book Fair this week. Thank you to our parent volunteers for their coordination efforts. Students always enjoy shopping for new books.
Next week, PreK-5 students will participate in the annual Halloween Parade. The letter was sent home this week. Parents, please ensure that you have returned the permission slip portion so we are aware of your child’s plans for lunch/recess that day. As a reminder, weather permitting the parade will start promptly at 2:20 pm on the backfield.
See the below for the Library Pumpkin Contest details!
The Debate Team is off to an awesome start! A great job was done by our first-time debaters Brandon Sim, Dylan Song, Ryan Weng, Noah Ahn, Hunter Hong, and Blaise Chaung. Congratulations to Dylan Song and Brandon Sim for winning their debate as well as our veteran debaters Irene Kang and Kelly Bae! Way to go HP.
In sports news, the soccer team finished their season yesterday with a well-played game against Demarest in the playoffs. Although the final score didn't go in their favor, every single player showed passion and determination throughout the entire game. We want to thank all the 8th graders for their commitment to the team and wish them the best moving forward.
