Fluency Friends - Volunteer Opportunity

Our Reading Specialist, Mrs. Rivard, is looking for volunteers to help students with reading fluency with a new program called Fluency Friends.

We have many students that need reading intervention.  Volunteers will be paired with students for a variety of tasks including flash cards, listening to students reread books, or give 1-minute reading passages.

Because volunteers will be working one-on-one with students, they will be considered Designated Volunteers.  Volunteers will need to have a background check and finger printing paid for by MSD.

A brief training will also be required for volunteers.  Please fill out the form below to sign up and Mrs. Rivard will be in touch with you.

Box Tops Collection

With the school year coming to a close, please don't forget to turn in your Box Tops by June 17th!  You can also continue collecting all summer long, just download and print this form.

For the 2015-16 school year, we will be looking for a volunteer to be the Box Top Coordinator. This person should have excellent attention to detail and will be responsible for working with HGF and the PTA to coordinate box tops drives and incentive programs.If you are interested, please contact Stacey Weigler at saweigler@comcast.net.

Volunteers Needed - Book Party 5/14

Our Reading Specialist, Mrs. Rivard, is excited to announce that HGF is the recipient of a $5000 grant! This grant enabled HGF to purchase more than 1000 new books for the lending library that our teachers use.

The books need to be stamped and labeled; we are looking for some volunteers to help with this task after school. She will be hosting a "Book Party" after school Tuesday the 14th from 3-4pm. Please come if you!! The sooner the books are labelled the sooner our teachers can use them with our children.
