Hello Parents & Families!
It's that time of year when the days are growing longer and warmer, and summer will soon be upon us. However, things will speed up around here before they slow down, so there are several important dates and events to note below.
The Last Day of School is on Wednesday June 24 (due to previous snow days). Please note that June 23 and 24 are half-days of school for students and dismissal is at 11am. Breakfast will be served but there will be no lunch served.
On the last days of school, Guidance counselors will send letters home to parents of those students who need to attend Summer School based on their final grades. Summer School registration forms are due between June 23 – June 26 from 9 am – 12 pm. Summer School starts on July 6 and ends on July 31.
Kudos to parent volunteer and PTO members Lee Snitzer and Clara Reagan who were recognized at the Promotional Exercises and Honors Night on June 23. All in all, it was a wonderful celebration to cap off the year!
Look for more information on the new Spiritwear policy for next year coming soon from the district office.

As we head into summer, I want to thank everyone--students, staff, parents and administrators--for a wonderful year! Kudos to all eighth graders passing successfully to ninth grade in their chosen vocational or high school. I am very proud of the hard work that went on all year at Henry Lord, and I wish all of you a safe, restful and productive summer!
