Haas Families 💚🐾

We are in the FINAL week of our Kids Heart Challenge, and we want to send a huge THANK YOU for all of the support you’ve shown so far! Because of you, our students are learning how to keep their hearts healthy, show kindness, and even practice lifesaving skills like Hands-Only CPR.

So far, Haas has raised $1,588.53 toward our $5,000 goal — amazing work! 🎉
We currently have 45 students registered, 6 students who have completed Finn’s Mission, and 11 families who have learned Hands-Only CPR. Every bit of support truly makes a difference for kids with special hearts.

⏰ Our challenge officially ends this Friday!
There’s still time to sign up, complete Finn’s Mission, or share your student’s page with family and friends.

👉 Sign up or donate here:
http://www2.heart.org/site/TR?fr_id=12398&pg=company&company_id=519896

🎉 Incentives Reminder:
The class with the most students registered and the class with the most students completing Finn’s Mission will earn a BONUS PE Day & Popsicle Party in the gym!

We are so proud of our Wolves for stepping up to help others while learning healthy habits. Thank you again for supporting this meaningful cause and for cheering on our students. Let’s finish strong this week!

Wolves Wellness Advisory Council Meeting 2/24
Parent Drop-Off Safety Reminder Good morning, Haas families! 💚🐾 We’ve noticed an increase in families parking across the road and walking students over during morning drop-off. We kindly ask that you please use our designated parent drop-off line instead of parking. Crossing the road—especially in the morning when it’s still dark and traffic is busy—can be very dangerous for students and drivers. Our drop-off system is in place to keep everyone safe and moving efficiently. Thank you for helping us keep all of our Wolves safe each morning by using the proper drop-off procedures. We truly appreciate your partnership and support!

Reminder, Haas families! Tomorrow, Wednesday, February 11, is Student Count Day — an important day for our school! We would love to see all students at school and on time so they can be counted. To make the day extra fun, all Haas Elementary students may wear pajamas to school tomorrow. Please remember: pajamas only — no blankets, pillows, slippers, or stuffed animals so students can stay focused on learning. Thank you for helping us make tomorrow a great day at Haas! 💚🐺

Hi Haas Families! 💚🐾

We are excited to celebrate our students with our January PAWS Sledding Celebration tomorrow — Thursday, February 5th! 🛷❄️

To help your child fully enjoy the day, please make sure they come to school with all winter gear:
✅ Coat
✅ Snow pants
✅ Hat
✅ Gloves/Mittens
✅ Boots

⭐ Important Reminder: Please send your child with an extra change of clothes (including socks) in their backpack, just in case they get wet while sledding. We will not be calling home for clothing/shoe changes, so having extras ready will help your child stay comfortable for the rest of the school day.

Sleds: Students may bring a sled only if they do not ride the bus. We will also have extra sleds available for students to share.

This is a positive behavior celebration, and participation is based on January behavior referrals and the discretion of the classroom teacher and principal.

Thank you for supporting our PAWS expectations and helping us celebrate great choices—Go Wolves! 💚🐾
