H-BC Families:
Students in grades 2-5 have been riding bicycles and learning about bike safety during gym class this week. Mr. DeBoer coordinates the program through Walk Bike Fun as part of a program called Safe Routes to School. Students are working on how to ride safely on sidewalks and streets, turn signals and obeying the laws of the road. Students in K-1 are learning to walk safely on sidewalks and roads. I encourage you to talk to your students about what they learned.
HEALTH REMINDER: Make sure to screen your child everyday, prior to coming to school! Your assistance is greatly appreciated! If you have questions or concerns, please contact Mrs. Leenderts or the office for assistance.
MASKS ARE REQUIRED ON BUSSES: As you know, students need to wear a mask on the school bus. We need your assistance. Please have your child prepared with their mask in the AM and PM bus route. The district’s supply of Masks is quickly dwindling. Your cooperation is greatly appreciated!
NUT AWARE SCHOOL: H-BC Elementary School is a peanut/tree nut allergy aware area. There will be no classroom projects with peanut butter or peanut shells. Please do not send any of these projects into the classroom with your child. It is our hope that parents, who send a lunch from home for their child, CHOOSE NOT TO send foods containing peanut butter or nuts.
AM BUS CHANGES--For morning bus changes please call the HBC bus line--make sure to identify your student and the bus number they are riding: 507-962-3240 press 4.
AM Drop--If it’s raining or you don't see our school staff on the playground in the morning, please drop your student off at Door #1 on the North Side of the School.
School Lunch -- All H-BC Students will have free lunch. That is correct FREE! Here is the letter explaining this...Letter LINK. Also, know that the school lunch supply chain is suffering shortages and menu items may change more quickly than we’d like. We will keep you posted.
Please reach out to me if you have any needs. Phone
