Dear Parents and Guardians,
Today, my daughter and I came to Hull to watch the
Drowned Hogs take their annual plunge into the frigid ocean. As I watched the “crazy swimmers” (that is
what my daughter calls them!) run into that 41-degree water, I thought about
how many of the students going in were doing so to help raise money for our
athletic program. You see, this year the
good people at Wellspring decided that some of the proceeds from the swim will
be donated to help ensure that our student-athletes continue to have the
opportunity to continue to be a member of a Pirate athletic team. I also thought about the hundreds of ways
that our entire community (students, teachers, parents and other residents)
contribute to make Hull High School such a wonderful place of teaching and
learning. You swim, bake, sew, drive,
donate, chaperone, collect, rake, keep score, and do so much more. You send positive messages to your children
about respect, service and the value of education. You offer valuable feedback to me about how
you feel we can make our school even better.
I do not say it enough – thank you for all you do for our school. I can truly say that there is no way that we
could do it without you.
Term 2
Report Card
Term 2 report cards were mailed on Thursday. If you did not receive your student’s report
card, it should be in Monday’s mail.
Please remember that you do not need to wait for progress reports and
report cards to see how your student is doing in each of his/her classes. Simply log onto the Aspen system and you can
see your student’s current grade, upcoming assignments, and if your student has
missed any assessments.
