📚 Halverson teachers are ALways learning! 📚 All teachers who are responsible for reading instruction in the district are being trained to enhance their teaching. As Halverson works towards being certified in High Reliability Schools Level 2, this is evidence of "Teachers are provided with job-embedded professional development that is directly related to their instructional growth goals."

🇺🇸 Hawthorne Honors Our Veterans 🇺🇸

Today our school came together to recognize and honor the Veterans in our community. Our students sang with pride, listened with respect, and learned about the courage, service, and sacrifice that protect our freedoms.

As we looked around the room, we saw children standing tall, Veterans holding memories close, and families feeling proud. It was a reminder that bravery often lives in quiet stories, in moments of service we may never fully see, and in the everyday people who have given so much.

To our Veterans: thank you for your strength, your dedication, and the example you set for our students. We are grateful today and every day. ❤️💙🇺🇸

🇺🇸 Halverson honored our Veterans today with a Veterans Day assembly. 2nd graders sang "You're a Grand Old Flag", 3rd graders read an acrostic poem, 4th graders read a poem, and 5th graders read their thoughts on what Veterans Day means them. We had a flag folding ceremony from Post 56 and heard from our very own Sargent Major Enser. 🫡
