Book Fundraiser
Hello Hopper Families!
Before we get started, we would like to thank the Ranauro Family for donating all the play t-shirts for those involved in the play!! YEAH!! Thank you to all who attended the PTO meeting this past week. We have updated the meeting minutes on our website this week. Please go to PTO Meeting Minutes under the tab ABOUT US. We hope you all enjoyed the snow day last week as well as the early dismissal and the no school day! Hopefully that was the last snow day this year, even if we still have the cold weather lingering for a little longer. Here are a few pictures of our guest readers, among them, firefighters, Ms. Karin Rezendes, Officer Littlehale and MT Commissioner Albert Kling !!

MOVIE NIGHT: Movie slip for Sherlock Gnomes is going home this week to watch the movie on Thursday, April 5!! It's only $7.00 per person. This price increases is due to the fact that Penn Cinema has switched over to all reclining seats which is costing us more.
