Hale School Playground

Hale students and families are invited to bundle up for some art-themed fun in the snow! We'll add a pop of color to the playground with art stations, music and more. Hot chocolate, coffee and donuts will be provided.

We’re looking for volunteers to help with the event. Please click here to sign up for a time slot, or email Jodi Massey (jodi@masseyconsult.com) with your availability.

Book Cafe was back ...

Thank you to everyone who stopped by to volunteer with Mrs. Johnson in the library with the Book Cafe last week while the kids enjoyed the tales and treats. It's one of the most exciting events of the school year for Hale students, and we hope yours enjoyed it.

Art Adventure is underway ...

Every Hale classroom is enjoying multiple visits this month from Art Adventure volunteers, who are leading students in a relaxed conversation about art in this long-running program sponsored by the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. Ask your kid(s) what they have learned -- and what they think.

Box Tops For Education

The Box Tops For Education fundraiser is still going strong after more than 25 years, and you can help support Hale by simply scanning your grocery receipts.

Check out this offer from Target, and see the BTFE website for more information.

Yearbook photo roundup

Every Hale and Field student receives a yearbook at the end of the school year, as organized and funded by the PTAs. We're looking for photos of your students in action. Photos can be sent to yearbookhalefield@gmail.com.
