Hawk Thoughts & Happenings
Team Pennoyer,
This week I was so excited to hang out with the Kindergartners and share a little bit about my culture and the holiday of Hanukkah with them! Thanks to Diana and Lucy for inviting me into their space and giving me this opportunity. The students were great! We learned a little Hebrew together, talked about the story behind Hanukkah, and made some connections between different traditions and holidays. It was definitely a highlight of my week. I also got to show off by ugly holiday "fake" sweater top just one more time this year...haha!

The shout out this week comes from The Middle School Team to Carly Bieda...
Shout out to Carly for making a difference, being a team player on so many of our Pennoyer teams, for always pitching in to lend a hand, or time, or an ear or whatever is needed whenever it is needed, and doing everything she can to support staff and students even in the trickiest of situations. Thank you Carly!
HERE is the agenda for our Staff Meeting next Monday, December 18th at 3:15pm in the MPR.
Hawk Action Items
- Before Winter Break...Please make sure to tidy up classrooms and throw away/recycle old items, garbage, any food in the classroom, and wipe down classroom surface areas as much as possible (see Alaine if you need wipes). Also, please try and plan to have students clean out any food, garbage, and old items in their lockers. Reach out to our maintenance crew if you need a garbage can for your students and their lockers.
Wanna make somebody's day at Pennoyer...don't forget about our staff shout outs we'd like to get started up again this year! It's real easy; if one staff member wants to give another staff member at Pennoyer a positive shout out for something that week, just send a quick email blurb to Adam, and he'll feature it in our weekly Hawk Happenings!
Great job with all the social media posts shared for the month of November! Keep it up in December. Here's the Google Form for teachers to complete. Thanks!!!
- Creating new Clubs at Pennoyer and Submitting Club Information for Website (Existing or New Clubs)
- If you’re interested in starting up a new club, it's certainly not too late. Please submit your ideas HERE! You can check out the CBA if needed for more information. For new clubs, we’ve created a helpful link on our website to showcase the wonderful opportunities for our students at Pennoyer. Please make sure once your club is approved that you create a one page Google Doc or Slide to share with Adam and Pat. Also, if you’re continuing a club from last year, please make sure the information is updated if needed...thanks! Here’s an EXAMPLE for your reference.
- Friday Car Line Opportunity During Arrival Time - Want to be a "Guest DJ" and greeter during morning car line? You can have your own playlist if you'd like and be a part of a fun part of the day connecting with our families and students on Fridays during arrival time. This is from 7:50am- to around 8:10am if you're interested. HERE is a sign up sheet to make things easier, and reach out to Adam with any questions.
