Blossom Hill Vision Statement – (Abilities and skills we expect our students to acquire and take out into the world)

All students will have the necessary skills to become enthusiastic, life-long learners and productive, empathetic, respectful members of society.

 

Blossom Hill Mission Statement – (What we need to do as a school community to ensure this happens)

The Blossom Hill School community takes pride in providing an enriched standards-based curriculum in a safe, nurturing environment. We strive to appreciate an awareness of students’ developmental needs to help them progress toward independence.

From the Principal's Desk


Dear Blossom Hill Families:


Please save the date! After a two year hiatus we are thrilled to resume our annual Halloween Parade to the Terraces next Monday, October 31st. The Kindergarten classes will lead the procession and start the parade at 1:00 exiting the Kindergarten gate. First grade classes will follow out the Cherry Blossom gate and the remaining classes may fall in behind in any order. Some classes may choose to walk with their Buddy Class. All parents are welcome to attend as spectators along the parade route.

 

Safety is always our #1 priority. Mr. Agustin will provide traffic control on Cherry Blossom and additional adults will be strategically posted throughout the parade course.

 

Students may wear their costumes to school on Halloween or slip them on prior to the parade. For safety purposes and to avoid disruption to learning ~ masks, weapons, full-face make-up, and inflatable costumes are not allowed. (Please note, students have heard these costume guidelines once a week for the past month during Wednesday Moring Announcements.)

 

All students participating in the parade must have a Walking Field Trip form signed by his/her parent or guardian. The form was emailed to you via Parent Square last Monday, October 24th. Link here - Trip Form

For families that choose not to have their child(ren) participate in the parade, supervision will be provided in the library. 

 

Following the parade, the H & SC will host a Post Parade Parent Get Together at the picnic table outside the staff lounge.

 

I hope you can join us!

 

Sincerely,


Lisa Reynolds

Help Wanted!

Hicklebee's Bookfair is coming soon!


We need volunteers to help transform our library into our book fair, ring up purchases, or help find books for shoppers. Sign up for a shift or two here


All proceeds from the Hicklebee's Book Fair go directly to our Library to support literacy programs. 


Book Fair Gift Certificates - This year Gift Certificate Orders can be done online. Please click here to place your order:


The certificates can be purchased in the amount of $10 or more and will be delivered to your student’s classroom the Monday, Nov. 14th, before the Book Fair. Gift Certificates are a safe way for your child to purchase books without the risk of bringing and possibly losing cash.


They also make a great gift for friends and your favorite teachers!


Please note that Kindergarten classes are not allowed to make purchases without a parent so gift certificates don’t apply for them.


Please direct any questions you may have to our Book Fair Co-Chairs at bookfair@blossomhill.org .

Thank you to our Home & School Club Community Sponsor of the Week!
