Week of October 9th – October 13th

THANK YOU to all families who donated their time and/or money to help make Friday’s fun run such a success. We had SO MUCH FUN with perfect weather! A special thank you to the PTA Board for all their work to make this a wonderful event for all our Harvest Hornets.

The fundraiser ends on Friday, October 13th. Donating any amount will help Harvest sustain its commitment to excellence for all our students. Every bit counts and we are currently at 98% of our goal… we KNOW we can make it! (click HERE to make a donation)

On Tuesday, 9/26 the SAS Sex Ed Advisory Board and the Washtenaw Area Council for Children presented the Body Safety Training program at a public hearing to the School Board. The SEAB is recommending that the School Board approves the program to be implemented in K-3 buildings to promote student safety. More information on the Body Safety program can be found here and here. Please submit any questions or feedback regarding the proposed implementation of the Body Safety Talks through this survey. Form submissions will be accepted through mid-October.

We’ve been fortunate to make it six weeks into the school year only needing to cancel one bus route, while continuing to struggle with bus driver shortages. In spite of our best efforts, we will need to cancel a different route next week, the week of October 9. Please review the details below to determine if your family is impacted. Impacted families will also be notified via the Ride360 app.Week of October 9:
- Bus #75: Route cancelled for Elementary students in the morning only.
- Bus #81: Route cancelled for Elementary students in the afternoon only.
