Good evening Fine Families-
It was a short week, but a very busy one to say the least! Our students and staff continue to amaze me with their hard work and dedication to making Hyman Fine such a special place to learn and grow. This week, I had the joy of visiting classrooms filled with eager readers, writers, and mathematicians, each excited to share their learning with me.
I also had the opportunity to meet with our teachers to discuss students’ fall data. I always enjoy these conversations, learning where our students are at the start of the year and hearing the thoughtful ways our teachers plan to support growth for every learner. We talked about interventions, extensions, and ways to challenge student thinking. I’m truly looking forward to seeing these plans come to life and watching the incredible progress our students will make throughout the year.
Speaking of student learning and progress... Fall Family–Teacher Conferences are just around the corner! This year, we’re excited to use Sign Up Genius to help families schedule conference times. Please visit our Hyman Fine Conference Portal to select your preferred time to meet with your child’s teacher. Conferences are a wonderful opportunity for families and teachers to connect, celebrate student successes, and discuss goals for the months ahead.
We kindly ask families to arrive on time, as conference times are brief and teachers have many families to meet with. If you have multiple conferences, please consider leaving a little time between appointments to travel between classrooms. Your cooperation helps us ensure that all families have the opportunity for meaningful conversations.
If your family is in need of translation services to support your conference, please reach out to your child’s classroom teacher so that we can do our best to make the necessary arrangements.
Thank you for your continued partnership and support
Mrs. Dalessio, Principal
