Happy December! Hemlock had such a wonderful month of November! The hallways are beginning to buzz with the magic of the holiday season. The children enjoyed their Thanksgiving activities with their teachers, classes and families.
We had our first Primary School PTA meeting, hosted at Locust, and welcomed Mrs. Ruby Klein, our speech pathologist, who gave an informative presentation about phonemic awareness and how we as parents can support our little learners at home! Ms. Bellovin, along with the other Primary Principals, showed us how one particular math game is used in the classroom to encourage learners to practice their math fluency.
Our collection for Island Harvest’s Operation Hope is still underway. Donations will be accepted through Friday, December 9th. Thank you for all of your support. The children have also been working on their letters of gratitude for Rangers Lead the Way.
The Beautification Committee will be decorating the outside of Hemlock for the Winter Season. Thank you for all of the donations of decor to beautify our Hemlock School. We couldn’t do it without your continued generosity. Thank you!
Library re-shelving volunteers will be needed to assist Mrs. Compton to help keep the library ready for our students to dive into reading. Be on the lookout for a sign-up genius from our Library Chair, Meg Saselu, if you are interested in joining this effort.
Now that December is here, we are very much looking forward to the holiday season ahead! The children have been working hard to prepare for their winter concerts and look forward to showcasing their hard work. Please see "Important Dates" for the days and times of the performances.
Our Bad Weather Games program has kicked off this month. If you are interested in volunteering to help in your child’s class for indoor recess on inclement weather days please use the following links or reach out to Hemlock@gardencitypta.org.
Our next Joint Primary PTA Meeting will be on Thursday, March 2 at 9:30 AM at Homestead. We hope you can join us!
From all of us at the Garden City PTA, we wish you a joy filled holiday season and a Happy New Year!

PTA meetings offers a valuable opportunity to interact with other parents, hear from a school teacher or principal, and learn up-to-date information.
