A Message from the PTA President
Dear Hunt Valley Families,
Thank you to all the families that came out last Friday to support our Reflections art contest winners and Spelling Bee contestants. It was a lot of fun getting to see families celebrate their budding artists as they received their awards. Our Hawk Spellers did a fantastic job! They were all brave when nervous, resilient when they spelled a word incorrectly, and supportive of their fellow students. A special congratulations goes out to the Bee finalists!
3rd Place – Leonardo Simeti, 2nd grade Ms. Bosco
2nd Place – Natan Gebremeskel, 4th grade Mr. Brock
1st Place – Samantha Thaler, 5th grade Ms. James
Samantha will go on to represent Hunt Valley in the County competition on March 22nd. Good luck, Samantha!
As always, if you need anything, please reach out to President@huntvalleypta.org or info@huntvalleypta.org.
Sincerely,
Kacie Jones
Hunt Valley PTA President
