Hello Hobe Sound! Itโ€™s that time of the year to celebrate National School Lunch Week! October 13-17th! This yearโ€™s theme is โ€œTaste the World: Your School Lunch Passportโ€. Why this theme? Your School Lunch Passport was chosen to inspire curiosity, cultural appreciation and adventure through food. By featuring international cuisines and flavors, this theme encourages students to explore new tastes and traditions, making school meals exciting and engaging. It celebrates the diversity of cultures both within our schools and around the globe. We will have related music going on all week, prizes, activity sheets and much more.

STRONG ATTENDANCE = STRONG LEARNING ๐Ÿ’ช๐ŸŽ

When students are in class every day, they gain the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed.

Attendance always matters, but October 6-10 is especially important. That's the week the state takes its enrollment snapshot to decide school funding for the year.

โœ… Students in class = accurate snapshot = the right funding to support stronger schools in our A-rated District and better opportunities for our kids.

Let's work together to make sure our students are here next weekโ€”it makes a difference for everyone.
