HGS students were thrilled with the performance by Alvirne’s Nothin’ But Treble and the B’Naturals.  Thanks Ms. Beaton for sharing!

Hills Garrison students enjoyed a visit from the Alvirne High School Jazz Band.  Our students enjoyed the variety of selections played by a very talented group of musicians accompanied by their enthusiastic conductor Mr. Gerry Bastien.   We really appreciate the opportunity to hear the group from Alvirne.

The HGS 3^rd, 4^th, and 5^th grade Enrichment Chorus performed their Holiday concert to the delight of a packed house.  The children sang 8 selections accompanied by Tara and Heather Hardy from Alvirne High School (former Hills Garrison students).

 New England weather is very unpredictable and the children go out for recess as often as they can (20° F and up, recess takes place).  Fresh air and time to move around and play are very important midday.  With that in mind, please help your child dress for the varying weather.  By dressing in layers, it insures warmth for your child in the extreme cold; hence, a sweater or sweatshirt could be taken off if it warms up considerably.  Students who wear boots and snow pants can play in the large field of snow when we have some!

 Please help your child come to school prepared for the cold, winter months.  Hats, mittens, and an extra pair of dry socks and such will be very helpful and greatly appreciated as needed.  Thank you in advance for your attention to winter wear.

Students and staff filled ten boxes with treats for the Moore Mart Project to fill stockings for the soldiers serving overseas during the holidays.  Hundreds of cards were made to go along with donations of candy and other snacks to help lift the soldiers’ spirits.  Thank you to ALL who contributed.

Mr. Parks, guest presenter shared a great deal of information with the students about the following birds:

American Kestrel – Sparrow Hawk

Peregrine Falcon- fastest species

Red Tail Hawk- a soaring bird

Great Horned Owl - species with black facial markings and camouflaging feathers

Screech Owl

The HGS students and staff enjoyed their annual Parade despite the delay.
