Washington DC for their graduating trip. This trip will be continuous
for each 8th grade graduating class at HBCP. Lets help our 8th grade
scholars go to Washington DC! Our next Jamba Juice Fundraiser is this
Wednesday, September 30th at 2:15 p.m.

Character Counts-Citizenship!

Our families LOVE HBCP and we

Every two months we focus on one of the character traits for Character
Counts to build character and positivity. The last two months (AugustSeptember) our scholars have been learning about the Character Counts
pillar Citizenship. Teacher Leaders sent me a list of scholars who should
earn an award for being a great citizen during the months of August and
September. We have 217 scholars who will receive a Citizenship award,
Citizenship wristband and Hardy Bucks! If you see an award come home
with your scholar, please congratulate them for a job well done. The next
Character Counts pillar we will focus on is Respect for the months of
October-December.

love our families!

Mr. Jones is a parent at HBCP. He has two

sons that attend our school. Many
mornings he volunteers to be the cross
guard in the morning to ensure our
scholars and families safely cross and enter
our school grounds. Thank you for
volunteering. HBCP loves our volunteers!
