Dear Junior School Parents,
What a truly A Maze-ing Race it was! Thank you to all of those that organized and volunteered at this amazing community event. Congratulations to all of the teams for working together so well, and for showing your HC spirit. All girls that have an A Maze-ing Race t-shirt, are invited to wear it during Phys- Ed Class for the remainder of the year.
I would also like to extend another note of thanks on behalf of the entire JS Faculty and Staff for your incredible generosity on Teacher Appreciation Day. We were spoiled all day with beautiful flowers and unending delicious treats. We truly appreciated being appreciated!
Sincerely,
Kate White

ADMISSIONS TEAM NEEDS YOUR HELP
Admissions needs volunteers to help with Havergal’s Welcome Family Program. This initiative helps welcome our new families to the Junior School. Welcome Families will be asked to connect with one of our new families via email or phone to help make them feel a part of our community before they start in September. Families may have questions that only a parent can answer and it is so nice for them to make a connection with someone who already has the ins and outs of life at the Junior School. To learn more about becoming a Welcome Family please click the link below.
