Good morning & happy Royal Friday! As a reminder, student dismissal is at 12:00 today, with no lunch at school. Have a fantastic weekend! 💙🤍
To celebrate the wrap up of our One School One Book event about a dog named Fenway, Hinckley-Big Rock Elementary School Student Council collected a variety of wishlist items and cash donations for Tails Humane Society in Dekalb! HBRES students and families donated paper towels, hand sanitizer, bleach, dry and wet pet food, toys, blankets, treats, and $238 in cash to help support Tails! Thank you to everyone who helped make this a successful event!
HBR offers various camps for our elementary students to experience activities & sports that our older students do. PushCoin is now "live" with these camp opportunities! All families are welcome to check these out on our HBR "store." See the link on the flyer!
We are celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week starting Monday with a “Camp Royale” theme. Students are invited to participate! Monday’s theme is “they do s’more than teach!” Students are encouraged to write a note/ card to express appreciation to their teachers. What a great idea to do on a rainy Saturday!

We are thrilled to announce that our very own STEAM teacher, Mrs. Delisio, has been selected from a nationwide pool of candidates to participate in the Smithsonian National Air & Space Museum's Teacher Innovator Institute. Mrs. D will spend 2 weeks this summer in Washington, D.C. and 2 weeks again next summer, learning from top Smithsonian leaders. Mrs. Delisio is excited to learn so many new things about technology, aerospace, and history- and bring this knowledge back to our students here at HBRES. Congratulations to Mrs. Delisio! If you'd like to see the application video that students helped Mrs. D create, check it out here: https://youtu.be/dtoReeI2yBI
