Thursday

  Ladies - consider a blowout at Ciao Bella Salon before the dance! Tell them HCE sent you and $10 comes back to the PTO! :) 

Friday

• Husky Hustle t-shirt sales BEFORE school from 7:50 AM - 8:45 AM at the front gates. We'll also have Headbands & Bows and a few more goodies for sale!

Missed Friday's PTO meeting? Don't be sad! You can catch the video version here! (29 minutes of PTO goodness) 

After our first charms deliveries, we realized the bracelets are not consistently strong enough to stay "locked". Many students already received bracelets - they are theirs to keep! EVERY student has also received a necklace as well. They can choose how they would like to string their charms... on a necklace.. or on the bracelet attached to their backpack (we recommend securing it with a little tape). 

• If your student loses their necklace, bracelet or charms, we are not able to replace them. We let each class know this (and it's announced at pep assemblies and by their teachers as well).  We encourage them to keep them safe with their backpacks - and not bring them to recess or lunch. 
• Deliveries are based on funds recorded by SUNDAY NIGHT. Our volunteers visit classrooms throughout the week to deliver charms - all based on what was logged by Sunday night. 
• With different volunteers handling each class - it's possible siblings in different classrooms may not get charms on the same day. Please be patient and wait until the end of the week to reach out to our Husky Hustle team if you think you didn't receive yours. 

Even more incentives: 

• RAFFLE PRIZE tickets (lots more details coming soon)
  
  
• Reach $500 between Feb 26 - March 24: Choose a book from our Treasure Box! (Students who reached this level prior to Feb 26 received a gift card to the Book Fair!) 
  
  
• Reach $750 by March 24: Get a 2025-2026 HCE Yearbook! (No need to buy one!) 

Details on the incentives can be found on our Husky Hustle Page! 

A special treat for our loyal readers: Win a pair of tickets to the San Diego Zoo/Safari Park (redeemable at either park) - tickets expire March 25th! 

How to enter? Just send us an email at communications@hickscanyon.org and tell us "I'M READING TAILS!" by Wednesday at 8 AM! Winner will be announced in Wednesday's email! 

That's where the good stuff happens, if we're being honest...
