Use the Scholastic Book Wizard (it's not just for teachers) to help find the appropriate books for your child's reading level!  You can search by interest level and by reading level, so you can find a book that's challenging enough but not too mature in content.  We may not have all these books in our library, but once you have a reading list you can search Destiny to see if it's here at school!

General Announcements


Book projects are due on March 2! 

Congratulations to Room 9, winners of our 1000th Day Door Decorating Contest!  They found 1,000 words to describe Room 9!

As we begin to review for the science MCAS test in May, students will be receiving review packets instead of writing assignments each week. 

Historical Fiction book project is due on Friday, March 2.  This project requires some historical research in order to create a timeline.  This can be done by checking out websites, encyclopedias, or any other nonfiction research books at your local library. 

Mrs. Clines and Mrs. Schmutte will be sending home grade reports every OTHER week in the Tuesday folder.  If you have any questions about your child's grades, please email the appropriate teacher at aclines@hwrsd.org or eschmutte@hwrsd.org and we'll be happy to explain!
