Hello Peter Hobart Families,
Family Connect time is quickly approaching.
Family Connections are a priority in our community. We hold the belief that these connections give us opportunities to further build relationships, share information about your learner, share evidence of their thinking and creativity, and partner with you for your child's success.
Your child's classroom educator will be reaching out in the upcoming days to schedule a connect time with you.
Connection times will be during the week of November 1-5th and will be either virtual or in person depending on your and the staff member's comfort level.
Our specialists will be connecting with families in a variety of ways, look for more details to follow.
Peter Hobart Proud,
Kari Schwietering ~ Principal

Peter Hobart Direct Oct 18 - 29th |
|
Peter Hobart Direct is our only student-led fundraiser of the year. It is a direct giving campaign. Instead of selling items, we ask families, friends, and neighbors to donate. 100% of the proceeds to directly to students and classrooms.
Last year was a great success; we reached our goal for dollars raised and student body participation. We were pleased to raise enough money to give money to each grade-level and specialist's classroom, and also give our mini-grants.
This year our goal is $15,000

Upstander Day - October 20 |
|
|
|
St. Louis Park Public Schools will celebrate Upstander Day on Wednesday, October 20. An Upstander is someone who stands up and helps even when it is hard. Students and staff are encouraged to wear orange to stand up against bullying.
If you are looking to extend the discussion you can find some great ideas and resources on the Pacer Center's website.

Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15.
As a Peter Hobart community, we celebrate with great pride the histories, cultures and contributions of people who or whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America.

This Land Acknowledgement was recently adopted by our SLP School Board.
Please take a moment to reflect on the land we now inhabit and celebrate our indigenous brothers and sisters.
St. Louis Park Schools Land Acknowledgement
We are gathered on the land of the Dakota and Ojibwe peoples. I ask you to join me in acknowledging the Dakota and Ojibwe community, their elders both past and present, as well as future generations. St. Louis Park Public Schools also acknowledges that it was founded upon exclusions and erasures of many Indigenous Peoples, including those on whose land this school district is located. This acknowledgement demonstrates a commitment to dismantling the ongoing legacies of colonial power and the district’s desire to support the ongoing work of local Indigenous communities to thrive in our schools.

PH International Baccalaureate (IB) World School |

This week first graders learned about our mission to become KNOWLEDGEABLE and CARING people who take ACTION to make the world a more PEACEFUL place.
We explored the concept of peace. We investigated what inner peace, peace in our spaces, and world peace look, sound and feel like.
Please support us as we work to make the world a more peaceful place.
