Dickson and Luann Jensen had a desire to impact the next generation and believe books and athletics are two tools for developing leaders and helping set kids up for successful futures! They started a project in hopes of reaching all second graders across Iowa by gifting them the book "Just Like Caitlin". Thank you to the Jensen family for impacting New Hampton Elementary 2nd graders!
Shout out to Konen Construction for coming and working with the building trades students install rafters. It was a great day and the students learned a lot.
October was a busy month in three year old preschool! The students learned about pumpkins by helping to carve their own classroom Jack O'Lantern. They enjoyed scooping out the pulp and then using that as a sensory bag. Then they painted their own shape jack o'lanterns pictures. Preschoolers also worked on their fine motor skills by lacing a pumpkin plate. Our last fall project was creating fall wreaths out of items students found out in nature, from acorns to leaves to corn cobs. Each wreath turned out so unique and special!IMG_2365.PNG
Seniors and Senior Parents: the FAFSA is scheduled to open December 1, 2024, but before that, you will need to create an FSA ID which is a unique username and password that will eventually be used to log you into your FAFSA. (Parents, if you have an FSA ID for an older child, you should not need to create a new one.) These need to go through an approval process, which can take up to 7 days, so you want to leave yourself a good amount of time to do this part before filling out the FAFSA. The student AND the parent each need to create an FSA ID. To do that, you will go here: https://studentaid.gov/fsa-id/create-account/launch
Please contact high school counselor, Michelle O'Donnell, with any questions at m_odonnell@new-hampton.k12.ia.us or 641.394.2134 ext. 2025.
