Parents meet teachers on PD day
November 28th has been called
a Professional Development Day.
On this day the parents of
students will be able to talk with
teachers on various subjects and
grades and discuss the work
habits of the students. This is the
time when all students shudder to
think of what the teacher might:
tell the parents. The worst part is
your parents won't tell you what
the teacher said, and the best part
is the students get a holiday!

School Dance
On November 19 our school
held a dance for the community.
This dance was in the school's
auditorium with our own Howick
Central School Ukelela Band
supplying the music. There were
from 100 to 150 people attending;
many were parents of students
who go to this school. Many
dancers commented on the song
"Rock Around the Clock" which
was the one of the many songs
they liked the best. Coffee and
doughnuts could be purchased
after the dance. Over a hundred
dollars was made, which will go
for buying a new complete drum
set. Mr. and Mrs. Parsons and
band would like to thank the
people for coming out and making
the night very successful.

T-Shirts
On Monday, Nov. 17, the
students at Howick Central were
glad to hear that their school
T-shirts had arrived.. Accom-
panying the 376 green T-shirts
with gold crest and lettering was
a 29-inch trophy. This trophy has
been put up for competition
between the students and the
staff. These last few days, the
school's attire has mainly been
made up of green t-shirts with a
hawk and "Howick Central--
Goldenhaws Fly to Win" on the
front of them. So if you se
student with a green t-shirt o
you know he is from Ho
Central.
