Friday 6/9 Message to Families
Message to Families
Beloved Community,
Congratulations and kudos to NHHS music for a fabulous, student-musician-centered concert last night. Wow! Musicians introduced pieces, conducted, composed pieces that were performed, shined in solos, and performed amazing ensemble pieces. Best of all, the musicians were having fun as they played and sang challenging music. Thank you NHHS musicians, Ms. Sibicky and Ms. Milanese. Appreciation also goes to the Music Boosters who have worked hard thought the year to support music at Nathan Hale.
A second chance to celebrate music at NHHS: If you are looking for live music & fun tonight, swing dancing to music by our musicians will be happening in the Commons at 7pm. All are invited!
On behalf of the Class of 2023, many thanks to the parents and guardians who so generously provided snacks and chaperones for Prom. The refreshment tables looked amazing. We are very grateful for the support of our families. There are several more year end opportunities coming up to volunteer. See details below.

SPREE is looking for a 9th, 10th or 11th grade parent/parents to attend the all-night graduation party after the ceremony and reception on Tuesday, June 27th to photograph the event. This is a great chance to get a sneak preview of what SPREE is like when your student becomes a senior, and a fun way to support the launching of 2023 into the world. No need to be a trained photographer – the mission is to capture the evening for grads so they have photos of the event. Please contact NHSPREE23@gmail.com to volunteer.

Graduating seniors with plans to attend 2-year and 4-year universities in the fall: Final transcripts will be ready sometime during the week of July 17th.

If it is before July 17th, students should contact them immediately to let them know final transcripts will be slightly delayed due to the strike this past September. (UW has a deadline of July 15th; they have already been notified of SPS transcript delay.)
