Hixson Highlights - May 6, 2016


Track Day - May 13

Next Friday is Track Day. Nurse Neumann and our P.E. teachers would like to remind students to:
  • eat breakfast to fuel your body for activity,
  • wear layers for projected weather,
  • bring a hat and water, 
  • put on sunscreen in the morning, and
  • HAVE FUN!


Early Dismissal - May 13

Students will be dismissed at noon on Friday for a half day of teacher professional development.


Dismissal Reminder

As the end of the year nears, we would appreciate your support with the following dismissal procedures: 
  • On Mondays and Fridays, students should be picked up by 3:35. 
  • On Tuesday through Thursday, students staying for after-school activities should be picked up by 4:10. 
Students are encouraged to walk to the Rec Center if their transportation is not on time and be picked up at the Rec. We cannot have students unsupervised throughout the building in the late afternoons. It is a critical safety and security issue. Thank you for your help in ensuring the safety of our students!
