Archery Unit in the Woods. The 6th grade finished their archery unit with a six-station walk through course in the woods behind HPES. Each station had a different distance and degree of difficulty from the shooting line to the target. Students used a combination of recurve and compound bows. Pics on back! Annual Ghost Walk In spite of the rain, PK-6 students donned their costumes and paraded through town. The local businesses, neighbors and families line the streets to see this event every year on Halloween.  
Meadow Farms Fundraiser The Meadow Farms Chocolate Fundraiser orders are due Monday, November 12th. Any questions please contact Yvonne Heath at 521-5400.
Basketball Signups The highlight of my month was to attend the Rowland Foundation Conference that focused on “Transform(ing) Equity Ideas into Effective Action”. Every principal, many central office administration and middle and high school teachers had the opportunity to attend this powerful and inspiring conference. Ruha Benjamin, the keynote speaker and workshop leader, provided an opportunity for us to examine our own beliefs systems and to better understand the role of the leader to impact positive change within our school system. My biggest “take away” was summarized in a quote from Ruha, “Knowledge has to go hand in hand with courage”. We are fortunate that the leadership of LNSD is provided opportunities to gain knowledge and to be courageous as we strive to meet the needs of all students. 
Basketball Signups K-6 Basketball Player, Parent, and Coach meeting will be held TONIGHT, Thursday, November 8th in the HPES gym at 6pm. This will provide an opportunity to register your child(ren) and get practice and game information, as well as meet your coaches. Please contact Shawn Clough at sclough@hpes.org or 521-5426 for more information.

She teams up with Scarecrow, Tinman, and Cowardly Lion to defeat the Wicked Witch of the West and magically return home to Kansas.
