  • We have a field trip on November 1 to the Howell Theater. We are going to see the movie version of the book we read earlier in the year, The Boxcar Children! Permission Slips are in your child's Take-Home folders. I will do a random drawing next week for chaperones. Please return slips and $10 as soon as possible! Thank you!
  • October 27 is the Hutchings Trunk-or Treat! Our grade level is putting together a Squishmallow Basket to raffle off! All the money earned from raffle tickets will go to our classrooms! The information is in your child's take-home folder, if you are interested in participating! A raffle ticket will be put into the drawing on your child's behalf, if they bring in a donation! :)

  • Weekly Notes from PTO: 

Husky Hustle!

Thank you to everyone who has donated so far and is helping us reach our goal for the Husky Hustle Fundraiser! We have 14 days left for donations and are officially at 84% of our goal! If every student donates just $12 we will have no trouble reaching our goal. This money is used for student field trips, yearbooks, teacher supplies, student/school events, etc. We really want to make this fundraiser a success to ensure we are able to give back to our wonderful school!
