It's so great to be back at school in 2021! So much exciting news happening at HFS! Our 8th Grade students received their acceptance letters to their high schools and are beginning to choose their high school. We are so proud of their accomplishments. The children celebrated and learned all about Martin Luther King, Jr. and then later that week our country welcomed a new President and the first woman Vice President to our Country. We thanked and celebrated the Sisters of Amityville by making cards and hearts to decorate their convent. Many of our early childhood classes are learning about polar animals, how they stay warm and all their special characteristics. All classes also learned about "Respect Life" day on Friday and completed different assignments celebrating -that the life of every person, from conception to natural death, will be protected in our laws and cherished in our hearts.
