---------- September 11, 2022 ----------

This is Mr. Lee with your Sunday Message and updates for the week.  The weather forecast shows this week's temperatures will be cooling down and we are getting back to more seasonal temperatures in the low 80's.  As you prepare to send your students to school, remember labeling reusable water bottles, clothing, and other personal items will help get these items back to your students if things are misplaced.  Here's what is happening:

  • Sun. 9/11: Annually on Sept. 11th we honor those that lost their lives in the 9/11 attacks.  We will never forget. 
  • Wed. 9/14: Additional Minimum Day.  Dismissal is at Noon on Wed. and Thurs. this week.  Please plan accordingly.
  • Thurs. 9/15: Hage Restaurant Fundraiser at 40 N Pho and Grill Noon until 8 PM.  Please present the attached flyer (Hage Fundraiser Sep 2022.pdf) at time of purchase to get 10% of your total donated back to Hage.  Great food and money for our school is a Win-Win.  
  • Fri. 9/16:  Hage Family Event at Rock N Jump from 5-7 PM.  Please mark your calendars to join fellow Hage Panthers for some jumping fun.  At purchase, let them know you are from Hage.  
  • Info from the Main Office:  This week students will be receiving a packet containing forms that parents/guardians need to review and complete for their student(s).  

Each student will receive:  

  1. 2022/2023 Enrollment Verification/Registration Form -- parents/guardians need to review, make any necessary corrections, then sign and date the form
  2. Health Form -- parents/guardians need to complete for the school nurse
  3. Universal Form -- parents/guardians need to complete, especially the photo release portion
  4. 2022/2023 Facts for Parents Booklet -- for parents/guardians to keep and read
  5. Student's Parent Portal Information -- only new students or those who do not have a parent portal accounts need to create one                      

The forms are due no later than Friday, 9/16/2022.  Thank you for your support.  

PTA updates: 

  • Parents interested in volunteering with the PTA, please email (pta.hage@gmail.com) directly or complete this quick google form.
  • We need your support in joining our PTA and Panther Partnership.  These are two great ways to support our school and our students.  We need you to help make our school even better for our students.  Please see the attached flyers for more info: Join PTA flyer.pdf and 2022-23 Panther Partnership flyers.pdf.  Joining PTA is only $12 and our Panther Partnership commitment can be as low as $5 a month.  

Additional info:

  • Our traffic flow is getting better everyday and it will take us all to continue to make it better.  Here are suggested ways to help us increase efficiency:
  1. Grades UTK-1 are the only families required to pick up their student 1-1.  This is crucial for safety of our youngest learners.  The designated area to the left of the Lunch court gate is meant for UTK-1 families only.  
  2. Grades 2-5 families, we strongly recommend you to make arrangements with their students ahead of time to designate a pick up area.  Having a designated place will reduce anxiety and crowding while students look for caregivers.  If you choose to park, please wait by your car (preferred) or to the side of the drive up lanes.  
  3. We strongly encourage caregivers of 2-5th grade students that drive to use of the drive up lanes or park and wait by your car.  Standing by the dismissal gate and looking for your student creates more crowding.  

Thank you for your help.

 

---------- September 4, 2022 ----------

This is Mr. Lee with your Sunday Message and updates for the week.  Thank you for your support throughout the first week of school; it was fantastic having students and families back at Hage.  Our Panthers are learning important routines in these early days of the school year and I am proud to say they are doing a great job.  Families you are also familiarizing yourself with the routines of school and we appreciate your efforts, patience, and understanding.  Here's what is happening:

  • Our traffic flow is getting better everyday and it will take us all to continue to make it better.  Here are suggested ways to help us increase efficiency:
  1. Grades UTK-1 are the only families required to pick up their student 1-1.  This is crucial for safety of our youngest learners.  Please use the designated area to the left of the Lunch court gate.

Thank you for your help.

  • Mon. 9/5: Labor Day- No School in observance of this holiday.
  • Wed. 9/7: PTA General Meeting and Ice Cream Social.  Please join us at 5:30 for the PTA General meeting and Ice Cream Social.  This is a great opportunity to connect with others in our school and enjoy some cool treats.  This is a free event and we look forward to serving you.  There will be free childcare and pizza for those who attend the PTA meeting.  Please see the attached flyers for more info: Ice Cream Social 9-2022.pdf and PTA Gen Meeting 9-2022 (3).pdf

Thank you and have a great night.

 

---------- August 28, 2022 ----------

This is Mr. Lee with your Sunday Message and updates for the week.  We are excited to welcome our families and students to the first day of school.  It will be the busiest drop-off day of the year and I suggest you walk or park outside of the school if you need to leave campus quickly.  As always, we encourage safe driving throughout our parking lots to ensure safety for all.  If you are driving onto campus there is a max 15 mph limit and we ask that you limit distractions while traveling.  It takes all of us to keep our community safe. 

On the first day, families are welcome to come onto campus to take pictures, capture memories, and walk their student to class.  If you choose to walk your student to class, we ask that you ease the transition by waving to them as they walk into class.  This will allow for a smooth transition and allow us to safely secure our campus as families exit.  After the first day, we will be securing campus and only allowing students to come in.  

If you are able to stay around til 8:10, we will be having a meet and greet with AP Ligon and I in the Aud.  

Please click on the links below to review the information and familiarize yourself with our procedures.  

Thank you and have a great night.

Hello San Diego Unified Families and Colleagues,

We hope you and your family had an enjoyable Spring Break and look forward to seeing our students and staff back healthy tomorrow morning. 

All students and staff are encouraged to use their iHealth Rapid Antigen Test Kit to self-test for COVID-19 tomorrow morning before coming to campus. Testing and uploading results is not mandatory for returning to campus, however testing is an important tool to help prevent the spread of COVID-19. By testing before returning from Spring Break, staff and families can ensure that they are not returning to campus with a COVID infection.

Additional details on how to use the self-administered COVID-19 tests and upload results can be found on this instructional flier: English, Karen, Spanish, Somali, Swahili, Tagalog, Vietnamese 

As of April 4, 2022, wearing masks at schools and district offices is no longer required but is strongly recommended. As a school community, we fully support the decision of all students, families, and staff to continue wearing a mask or not. Harassment or bullying of anyone based on this personal choice will not be tolerated.

Below are some great resources for staff and families to help students understand and ease fears and anxiety they may be experiencing:

San Diego Unified is closely monitoring the COVID-19 status in our school communities. In the event that the State or County were to revert to requiring masks at schools, the District would follow those guidelines. Similarly, if the COVID-19 risk in our area increased to a level that would necessitate requiring masks, the District would follow the best medical advice and practices recommended.

With the change in mask requirements, we realize there are many questions about what other changes there may be in district COVID-19 policies. Students and staff should continue to self-monitor for symptoms each day and stay home if not feeling well. Additionally, enhanced ventilation, proper hand hygiene, contact tracing, and case management remain intact. For more details and updates on COVID-19 policies, please refer to the COVID-19 Information page.

Additional info: 

  • Reminder: Students that are experiencing symptoms like headache, sore throat, stomach upset (nausea), or have runny nose and congestion (not associated to any pre-existing documented condition) should be kept them at home and plan for COVID testing.  Please do not send students to school with these symptoms.  Thank you for your support of these important health and safety guidelines.  
  • District Mask Policy Update 3/5/22

Students, staff and visitors to campus will no longer be required to wear masks indoors effective April 4. All other COVID-19 safety mitigations and protections including; air filtration, testing, handwashing, distancing when possible, self-screening for symptoms, case management, and contact tracing will remain in place.

Two weeks ago when district staff spoke with advisors from UC San Diego, the majority felt at that time that removing a mask mandate was premature, as the local COVID-19 case rate remained high. On Thursday, the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) moved San Diego County into the lowest level of concern. For that reason, we believe it is appropriate to update our safety measures at this time.

We will once again provide all students and staff with at-home COVID-19 tests to use before returning to campus following Spring Break. This strategy worked extremely well before Winter Break, and we are grateful to have enough tests to be able to repeat the process. 

We will also continue to monitor federal, state and local guidelines and remain ready to return to indoor masking if our community were to enter a higher level of concern. Additional info & resources will be available on the district COVID-19 Information page.
