Message from Dr. Breuder:
I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. We are in the midst of our EOY (end-of-year) activities, which makes our days and weeks busy! I know classroom teachers are sending out calendar information, so please be on the lookout for all of the happenings around Hazel Wolf! Families in grades K-4, please make sure to send in your optional Student Info & Family Input letter by Friday, May 30th. Middle School families, we will be announcing course electives this week and middle school students will fill out Input Surveys for Course Electives later this week, as well. We have a number of field trips, assemblies, spirit days, field day, promotions, etc. all happenings in the next four weeks. I love these last weeks of school, as teachers and students are finishing up units, lessons, projects in the classrooms, and it is so great to celebrate the growth and progress that has been made this school year.

Message from Mr. Zetterberg:
Book Bonanza will take place June 9-13 in the Library.
- Book Donation: Do you have gently used picture books, early readers, chapter books, or Young Adult novels you no longer need? Donate them to the Book Bonanza! The Hazel Wolf library will begin accepting book donations starting June 2.
- Book Bonanza: As a result of generous donations from PTSA, the community, and student families, this free event allows all K-8 students to select books to keep! Classes will browse the HUGE selection of books June 9-13 during class library times, lunch recesses, and before and after school. Friday afternoon we will encourage students to revisit the Bonanza and select more books to ensure families have enough to read all summer! There is an opportunity to help with setup and cleanup for this event.
