What a fantastic time seeing our little and their families having fun at our Fall Family Fun group connection event!!!!
Wonderful family friendly event coming soon, Taste of Lemay-Affton!
A couple of important reminders!
We still plan to have our Fall Family Fun event from 6pm to 7pm today at the Early Childhood Center, even if it rains. If it is raining, we will open up the gym area, but if it is not raining, we will be on the playground and the gym will not be open. You will be able to receive a free ice treat from the Kona Ice Truck when you leave; treats are not allowed inside. Looking forward to seeing all of you!
Tomorrow, Wednesday, September 24th, is an early release day. Full Day students need to be picked up on time at 11:40am at the ECC and the preschool students' parents at the elementary school location should check SeeSaw for their times. Half day/Morning classes will be dismissed at their normal time. Half Day/Afternoon classes will not have school. There is no after care at either location. Teachers and staff will be engaged in professional development after pick up. Thank you in advance for being on time!
Last REMINDER that of our first group connection event at the Early Childhood Center is tomorrow, on Tuesday, September 23rd, from 6pm to 7pm. The Kona Ice Truck will be there!

Happy Friday! As you plan your calendars for this school year, please consider attending our OUTSTANDING group connections events in which our Parents As Teachers parent educators and Preschool teachers assist in organizing and attending! Please see the attachments for our first event coming this month and the list of them for the school year! Our events provide parents and their children various opportunities for interaction including but not limited to activities, crafts, games, music, treats, and so much more! Also, if you have littles from infant through pre-kindergarten, please consider enrolling/registering for Parents As Teachers at pat.hpsd.school.
Hope you had a fantastic Labor Day weekend! Reminder to please read our drop off and pick up procedures. It is very important to follow the directions to provide safe and efficient processes. A couple coming to mind are to use both lanes so that we can have as many cars possible to prevent or limit the number of cars backed up on Military Rd. We can permit you to move over before exiting to Broadway if necessary. Please stay in your car during drop off and stay at your car during drop off. If you are being motioned forward, pull all of the way up to the white stop line or behind the car in front of you.
Please see our Nurse Newsletter from Mrs. Shannon Williams! It is always great to see what is current as well as other helpful information. The newsletter is posted on our Facebook and website pages as well as emailed to you!

Hello Hancock Place Tiger Parents, please see our video regarding student personal communication devices being banned per Missouri Senate Bill 68. https://www.loom.com/share/f0fb81cf2fe44a64b9fe70c7d5ada723?sid=125862a5-7088-4d71-ac1d-f2c2e1aefe62
Hello Hancock Place Preschool Parents,

https://dor.mo.gov/taxation/business/tax-types/sales-use/holidays/back-to-school/consumers.html
-Teachers are meeting August 1st to determine which classroom your child will be assigned; you will be contacted early the following week
-Open House is Thursday, August 14th, from 5pm to 7pm; children attending classrooms at the early childhood center will sign up using Signup Genius and those at the elementary school are able to arrive at any time in that span.

If you have a child who will be the age of 3 on or before July 31, 2025, and not 5 years old yet, be sure to register them for our preschool program, free to residents and only $450 monthly for non-residents! If you have any questions, please contact our registrar at 314-544-1300, ext. 11070, or lvargas@hpsd.school! We also have low cost before and after care options at a low cost as well for most preschool students. Children are more likely to be prepared for Kindergarten and beyond if they have the opportunity to complete preschool! Feel free to share this with your friends who have children in this age group!
Tomorrow is the last day of school; remember that it is a half day, so students need to be picked up by 11:40pm. There will be no PM classes or aftercare. Our staff has a meeting after dismissal. The summer will most likely fly by, so please register your child for preschool next year or kindergarten as soon as possible. Most of you have completed this which guarantees your child a spot in the program; however, for those who have not, we will be actively advertising our program outside of the district through social media, signage, and word of mouth which will lead to many non-resident parents registering their children due to our very low tuition amount. Thank you for a wonderful school year!
The week begins with our earliest learners! Heading to kindergarten! #hpsdtigers
