Week of January 4, 2010
I wish
to extend to you and your families my best wishes for a happy and
healthy new year.
The Central Administration
of the school district extends its sincere apologies to Garrett
Mazziotti and his family for the inadvertent omission of his
name from the grade 7, high honors list for the first term at
HKMS. Congratulations Garrett on your academic
achievement.
H1N1 Update
The following message and information
has been provided by the Director of the Middletown Health
District.
"As you know cases of H1N1 are currently
on the decline. I would like to think that it is at least
partly do to us along with other MDA's and providers putting our
efforts forward to vaccinate the public. State epidemiologists
as well as our CDC professionals are forecasting further spikes in
cases for the future. As a result we are currently being
directed to continue our vaccination efforts well into the
spring."
