New Family Coffee Chats with Mrs. Carmody
December 2 and December 8
Have you joined our HW Community within the last year? If so, the HW PTO and Mrs. Carmody will be hosting a zoom coffee to touch base with any new families at HW who would like to participate. Feel free to jump on if your schedule allows. We will target Kindergarten specifically on 12/8, but if you have older students and can't make the first timing, feel free to join this one. These will give a brief 20 minute overview of HW and then time for Q&As for anyone who would like to stick around! These will be recorded and shared after.

Thanks to all of those who purchased books for our HW Virtual Book Fair!
While the Book Fair celebration is over, you can still purchase books from Anderson's Book Fair Company and support the RC! Simply shop at abcfairs.com, and at checkout, put Hubbard Woods as the School Name and Winnetka as the School City. 45% of the proceeds of the Book Fair benefit the Resource Center in the form of new books.

A sincere thanks to Amy Kay & Kathryn Martin for all their hard work on this year's Virtual Book Fair! Liz Delzell also did a tremendous job promoting it and bringing the Fair to life via Schoology...fantastic event! How about the first ever, Literary Spirit Week? So fun, PTO thinks we have a new HW tradition!
Big thanks to Jessica Newell for executing our 2nd spirit wear sale; first time the PTO hosted the sale twice and it was a huge success!
Thank you to the Beautification Team: Carrie Marcus, Molly Dolkart and Jessica Newell for switching the planters over for the winter season. They look gorgeous and hardy for the season ahead!
