March for Our Future

A word from your PTO:

Hello Hunt Families!
Here is an upcoming Community Event!
Do you know about March for our Future On January 20th at 1:00pm in Montpelier?

Here is a message from a Youth Team that includes some Hunt students who are marching in the event:

 On behalf of the upcoming March For Our Future rally, we are reaching out for your involvement and presence. On Saturday, January 20th, at 1:00, we will march from Montpelier City Hall to the Statehouse for a rally. Here is a link to our facebook event and one to the website.

    Although it’s been a tough past year politically, to say the least, this march is not a political one. It is simply -- yet complexly -- a march that will highlight human rights, dignity, and equality for all. The wide array of issues that are faced today (climate disruption, racism, corruption, net neutrality) affect youth in a completely different way due to our lack of representation in polls and in general.

    Therefore, the goal of this youth-centered event is to elevate our voices and allow a platform for us to be heard. It’s obvious to us that youth are not just our future but who we should be looking to now.

    Your attendance would offer great support to not only the rally, but to all the youth of Vermont. There are multiple ways to be involved including turning people out, helping with promotion, poster-making, and sponsoring the event. We are offering tabling opportunities outside of the statehouse to event sponsors. Tabling fees will be determined based on the annual budget of the group/organization. Here is a 
M4OF Participation Form. Please fill it out if you can help in any way!

iPads are Back!

Hi folks,

Your child will be getting back his/her/their iPad this afternoon with instructions to charge it overnight. That is not a different expectation than every other night of the school year, but we imagine students will be excited to get their iPads back and may need a reminder to log off and plug it in at some point this evening. We will be checking during Mod 2 tomorrow to ensure they are charged. Those that are not will be marked on the iPad infraction rubric, per procedure. Thank you so much for your support.

Happy New Year!
