We are proud to announce that our counselor, Marjorie Edge, has once
again won the prestigious CREST award. CREST stands for Counselors
Reinforcing Excellence for Students in Texas. Schools receiving CREST
awards have demonstrated a commitment using the school guidance and
counseling program to improve the lives and achievement of students in
academic, career and personal social domains. Only FIVE PISD schools won
the CREST award this year.
All of our Haun Huskies are touched by the heart, spirit and pride of
our counselor. She leaves a paw print on each of us by encouraging us to
grow and learn while showing kindness and respect toward one another.
Mrs. Edge is truly changing the future by:
-
serving on our CMIT (Campus Monitoring and Intervention Team) and SBIC (School Based Improvement Committee);
-
developing/facilitating our violence prevention plan, school citizenship program and R Time curriculum;
-
leading the staff and students during College Week, Red Ribbon Week and Friendship Week activities;
-
empowering students through guidance lessons and academic support times;
-
promoting community awareness through our community partnerships; and
-
supporting Haun’s vision of creating a learning environment that shows kindness, shares joy and celebrates a love for learning.
Congratulations to Mrs. Edge for such a prestigious award that is well deserved. We love you!! |

Haun’s 2012 Rock Hop was a huge success!! It was wonderful seeing our
kids dancing and enjoying themselves and so many of our Haun families
having such fun together. Our games, raffles and silent auctions were
very successful for the Haun community. Thanks to all the parents,
teachers and staff members who contributed to this worthwhile cause. As
you know, pulling off an event like the Rock Hop takes many, many
volunteers working together as a team. Whether you helped plan the
event, set up, cleaned up, worked a shift during the Hop or just came to
enjoy the fun, we thank you.
We are especially grateful to our dedicated Rock Hop Committee Chairs
who worked tirelessly to make this fun for all of us: Vandana Aggarwal
and Tiffanny Hosey (Decorations), Kathy Phillips (Volunteers), Mary
Gaetjen and Trish Sujack (Publicity), Debbie Martin and Tia Sukenik
(Food), Stacy Koch and Liz Nangle (Grade-Level Baskets), Becky Grant and
Trisha Brightup (Silent Auctions), Susan Clare and Michelle Culberson
(Games), Lisa Bruno (Cake Walk) and Marlene Aldridge and Denise Erich
(Tickets). A special thank you to Sarah Morris and This Side UP! for the
donation of the popcorn!! Many thanks to our PTA President, Tiffanny
Hosey, who was always available to bounce ideas off of and help in any
way needed. We would also like to thank the 3rd and 4th grade teachers
for graciously sharing their classrooms with us so we could have games
in the classrooms!! Finally, we want to give a special thank you to
Jayne Smith and all of our Haun teachers and staff for their support.
The Rock Hop would have never happened without you!! |

There seems to be some confusion over Yearbook orders this year. The
process for ordering a Haun Yearbook has changed. Orders were NOT taken
during Meet the Teacher this year. And there will be NO extra supply of
Yearbooks at the end of the school year.
If your child wants a Yearbook this year, you must order by January 31 through Balfour. This is our printer’s deadline so we cannot extend it. Don’t miss out!! Place your order now!! If you have any questions about Yearbook, contact Catherine Jarrett, our Yearbook Chair. |
