If you were not able to get a conference scheduled for the end of next week, Hunt teachers are happy to meet with you in the coming weeks or later in the year. Whether this is your first child at Hunt or your last, each child/teacher/team experience is unique and standards and expectations are always changing.
Conferences are important for developing a relationship with your child's teachers, showing your child how important their education is and it gives you, your child and the teachers an opportunity to reflect upon achievements and challenges in the classroom.
Going forward, every child will be developing a personalized learning plan that helps steer them in the right academic direction starting now and continuing each year through graduation. What is your child planning for his/her future? How can you and Hunt staff help guide them in developing a plan for a stimulating and rigorous course of study?

Hi Very Merry Friends,
This weekend, Don Wright and Ashley O'Brien bring their VMT adaptation
of the Shakespeare classic to the Stowe Theatre Guild. They are performing until October 10th Thursdays through Saturdays! The shows
are at 8:00 p.m Thursdays and
Fridays, and at 2:00 p.m. and 8:00 p.m. on Saturdays. Tickets
are available online at www.stowetheatre.com, $25 for adults and $15 for
children.
This madcap comedy turned musical is set in post-World War II Athens, Indiana.
Oberon and Titania battle for diner supremacy while Puck creates mischief with
four young lovers lost in a hayfield, and Bottom and friends rehearse their
play to perform at the mayor's wedding.
The show is laugh-out-loud funny, fast-paced, has a swinging 40's score and
features lots of familiar Very Merry Theatre faces, both adult and teen.
If that is not enough to get you to make the trip to Stowe, Mr Don Wright
himself takes the stage, in a donkey mask and on roller skates!
We hope you can join the fun!
NOTE: Don Wright and Hunt parents, Kat Kleman and Colby Kervick are also in the show!!!

FUND OUR PROJECT!
Do you value music instruction/performance for EVERY child? This might be where you want your donation to go...
TEAM / UA: Hunt Music Department
|
PROJECT / PURCHASE: Instruments
|
MONEY NEEDED TO RAISE: As much as possible
|
We have a great need among our instrumental performance music students (band and orchestra) for school instruments. The need is likely to continue, if not grow year after year. School instruments are provided free of charge to students whose families request them. Thus we ensure equal access to our programs for all students. We would be most grateful for any money that could be raised that would go towards purchasing more instruments for the school, and/or financial aid for student rentals (from Ellis Music, Vermont Violins, for example). A new instrument might cost anywhere between $300-$600, while several used instruments may be bought for that amount. A rental from Ellis Music (for example) costs between $20-$45 a month, depending on the instrument.

TEAM / UA: VKAT (Vermont Kids Against Tobacco)

PROJECT / PURCHASE: All-school assembly for
International Week/ purchase food for International Week lunch Taste Test |
MONEY NEEDED TO RAISE: $700-$1,000
|
DETAILS, DETAILS…
Having an all-school assembly that features a professional International
performance has been an important way to celebrate our
International diversity. The Assembly has featured our
International Student flag parade, Hunt student performances and a paid professional performance.
Example of possible paid performances:
Chinese acrobats, African drumming and dance!
______________________________________________________________________________
During International Week, Hunt students and community members
make international food that is served as a taste test
during all the lunches. For example: we have made Sushi and crepes for 400 students!!!
The money is used to pay for the ingredients and
international food. |
