Family Friday - 4th & 5th Grades - Feb 21👨👩👧👦📚
Join us for the next Family Friday! This month, 4th and 5th grades welcome you into your child’s classroom for a reading or math activity. We will open the center gate promptly at 1:40p for you to proceed to the 4th or 5th grade classroom. You will sign in with the teacher, not the front office for this event. Please be on time as this is a small window before school ends. Flyer
Monitoring Social Media & Messaging Apps📱👀
We want to remind families about the importance of monitoring students’ use of social media and messaging apps. We have become aware that some students are using these platforms, even though many require parent permission due to age restrictions. Unfortunately, some of the content being shared is not age-appropriate.
While the school cannot investigate social media activity that occurs outside of the instructional day, we will address any instances where cyberbullying or inappropriate online behavior impacts the school environment. If necessary, we will follow the district’s discipline policy.
We appreciate your support in helping students navigate responsible digital use.
Next Core Academy Session - Sat Feb 22 📔🏫✅
The next Core Academy will be offered Saturday, Feb 22nd. Core Academy is an additional instructional day (though only 4 hours), taught by Hancock teachers, and offers academic support in various core subject areas. Sessions run 8:00am - 12:00pm. A breakfast and lunch meal is available for all students attending Core Academy at no charge. Students can make up a full day of attendance lost by attending this 4 hour session. Last day to sign your student up for this session is Wednesday, Feb 19th. Register by filling out this form.
Volunteering At Hancock🤝✨
With a number of activities and field trip opportunities for students coming up please know that proper Volunteer paperwork, screening, Tuberculosis clearance and potentially other items are required by the district before anyone can be a volunteer at a school site. Please review the district’s Volunteer webpage: Volunteer – Family Engagement Department and then contact the Hancock Office at 619-605-3200 for questions or the required paperwork. Please know this is a process and will not be done in a day or two. If you are planning to attend a field trip please give yourself a few weeks to get all of the required items completed prior to the field trip.
Upcoming School Non-instructional Day 📝🛑
The district calendar has Friday, March 7th as our next Non-instructional day. All district schools will be closed on this date. Please make any childcare arrangements or check with your childcare provider. Prime Time will also be closed.
Moving Soon? We Need to Know!📦🚚📤
If you and your family have upcoming orders prior to the end of the school year, please be sure to let our office know about your tentative date.

Need to Report an Absence? ❌
