4-6 Parents/Guardians: Our 4-6th grade holiday program will be virtual this year. We will record the program during the school day. The date is to be determined as we are working with our videographer to find a time in which he can be available for quality taping. There will not be a formal dress code for this program, however, we will let you know when we are recording so that students who want to dress up can be prepared and do so. The link to the program will be shared to families in December before break.
Thank you,
Angela Iversen

My name is Madalyn Hewitt, I am the new AmeriCorps member serving as a naturalist with the Plymouth County Conservation Board. I am excited to get started and to get to know each of you throughout the next year.
AmeriCorps service is directed at 4th- 12th grade students. Currently, I am offering a survival type skills development program over the course of the next several months. Students will meet once a month; each month will focus on a particular training aspect. At the end of the training, next summer, we will host “The Hungerford Games”, where students will use the skills learned throughout past training sessions in a competition of “survival” here at Hillview recreational area.
I have planned to hold training in two group sessions the second Sunday of the month, October through April, from 1-3 and 3-5 pm. We will hold the competition in June of 2021.
The idea is to get the older aged students involved with environmental education and share the opportunity AmeriCorps can offer to assist them as they graduate and move onto bigger and better things. I would appreciate it if you could please share this information and flyer throughout parents, students, and staff. This is a free program aimed at student’s 6th through 12th grade.
Thank you for your time & participation,

Dear families,
Students in 7-12th grade will continue to stay in hybrid for one more week making Monday, October 19th our return date for everyone. This decision is based on multiple pieces of information including the recommendation from Public Health as we want to continue hybrid for a full incubation period (14 days) with the mask mandate in place without concern about additional cases from the school contact.
It is vital for students in 7-12th grade to check their emails and Canvas at 8 am daily to avoid missing deadlines and information pertinent to their learning and grades. It is also important for parents to call by 9 am if their student is sick and unable to participate in distance learning that day. While we recognize flexibility and grace has been important in this year’s transition, we have gradually increased our accountability of students and will be less likely to accept late work as we approach the end of 1st quarter.
Respectfully,
The Hinton Administrative Team
