Principal’s Notes

This week, our students were treated to a performance from the

US CGA percussion trio. Our students danced and played along

with the band!

Congratulations to all of the students at QH for filling the Gen Jar

for a 2nd time this school year! In the fall, we earned a school-

wide extra recess. This trimester, students earned a special movie

or open gym time. Students earn Respect Rocks (or gems) for

showing that they are respecting themselves, each other, and our

school. Let’s try to fill it one more time!

Our 3rd grade orchestra students put on a wonderful performance for their families this week.

Mr. McCleary led the orchestra through a demonstration of the skills they have learned this

year, and all were impressed at how far they have come in such a short time! Well done!
