Horn Spring Fund Drive
Thank you to everyone who has donated to our drive!  We have raised $1015!   The Spring Fund Drive will continue until April 19th, so there is still time to help us reach our goal of $3000. 
The money raised provides support to all the Horn teachers: including classroom, ELL, behavior focus, modified classrooms, resource, reading recovery, ELP, counselor, IDS, art, orchestra, band, and title 1 reading teachers.

Please consider making a donation in support of our teachers and staff.  Online donations can be made through the Hive drive PayPal link.  Cash or checks, made out to Horn PTO (subject line: Build the Hive), can be turned into the school office.

NO CONTRIBUTION IS TOO SMALL OR LARGE TO HELP BUILD THE HIVE!

Workout Wednesdays
Join the fun at next week's Workout Wednesday.  Head to the gym at 7:15am and meet up with Mr. Hildebrand and others to get the day started right!   The last two workout sessions will be on 4/17 and 4/24.
