Dear Community Members,
As we enter the month of May, the weather has finally taken a turn, and it appears the cold, snowy weather is behind us. The flowers are beginning to bloom, and the smell of freshly cut grass is in the air. All signs that spring is here, with summer right around the corner. As the year winds down, we want to celebrate the wonderful school year we had, remind you to vote on May 7 on the annual non-homestead millage, and provide an update on where we stand with making up snow days. On May 23, we will celebrate the graduation of over 450 high school seniors and the mark they will leave on our school system. They have performed in the classroom, on the stage, in the field of play, and throughout our community. I want to congratulate all our seniors for how they have represented Hudsonville Public Schools. Thank you for allowing our staff to be a part of your educational career, and we wish you all the best life has to offer in your future.
The first week of May has traditionally been earmarked as Teacher Appreciation Week. We are using the week to celebrate all the amazing staff that work with our students on a regular basis. From crossing guards to bus drivers, paraprofessionals on the playground to food service staff, teachers to administrators, we truly have some incredible staff that have dedicated their days to supporting the children in our schools. Please take some time this week to express your gratitude to those that care so deeply for your children.
Hopefully, you are aware of our Non-Homestead election that will be taking place on May 7. Hudsonville School parents and community members will have the chance to vote on our annual Non-Homestead Millage renewal. This is an annual renewal request that voters have approved for the past 24 years and would generate approximately 4.8 million dollars of operating revenue for our school district. Please note, this is not a tax on primary residences and is not a new tax. Please get out and vote on May 7. Finally, there have been several questions about making up snow days, as most of you are attempting to finalize your summer plans. Late last week we were notified that the Michigan Department of Education would allow districts across the State to seek a waiver to forgive additional snow days if they so choose. There have been many discussions on making up days, and the impact that it has had on instruction. We also have discussed the impact making up time could adversely affect summer plans for parents, staff, and students. At this point, we have applied to waive the one (1) additional day that we needed to make up. With the approval of the waiver, we will maintain our calendar with the last day of school being June 7. This will still be a half-day of school, as previously scheduled. Thank you for your understanding, as the decision from the State took much longer than anticipated. The school calendar for this year, as well as next year, is posted on our website (hudsonvillepublicschools.org).
I hope you all enjoy the last weeks of the school year and enjoy your summer. Thank you for making Hudsonville a fantastic place to live and grow!
Best regards,
Doug VanderJagt, Ph.D.Superintendent

Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports at the Early Childhood Center The Early Childhood Center rolled out PBIS (Positive Behavioral Interventions and Supports) in January. Our three building expectations are: Be Kind, Be Safe, Be Your Best.
Our PBIS team has created specific expectations for all common areas of the building such as lockers, bathrooms, buses, hallway, playground, and the cafeteria. Because we mainly work with 3-5-year-olds, all of our expectations have lots of visuals too. Some of the main ideas of PBIS include teaching behavioral expectations (just like we teach reading, writing, and math), using common language throughout the building, and recognizing kids for doing the right thing. Students can earn “brag tags” for making good choices. We even have a “class brag tag” that is awarded to the best-behaved class in the cafeteria each day! Additionally, we have several trees painted throughout the building and students are awarded with their name and picture on a leaf to place on the tree when they are “caught being good.”
We are excited about all of the positive changes we have seen already and look forward to implementing more PBIS activities in the 2019-2020 school year!
The Parents' Club at Park Elementary surprised the students and staff this week with encouraging messages in the restrooms. With the money raised from our annual Color the Park fundraiser, our Parents' Club is able to support students and staff with supplies for the classroom and playground equipment. They also support the school by encouraging students to be and do their very best. Park school appreciates the support from their Parents' Club!

West Michigan Symphony Trombonist visits Georgetown
Georgetown fourth graders were treated to a special visit by the principal trombonist from the West Michigan Symphony. Mr. Kipman was one of the music mentors with the LINK UP Symphony program that all fourth graders in Hudsonville participate in. He met twice with students at Georgetown to help prepare for our interactive symphony trip that took place in April. At the concert, students play recorders, sing and move along with the orchestra. Mr. Kipman helped students practice the repertoire, learn about brass instruments, and showed them different types of trombones. He explained what it's like to be in a professional orchestra and how much fun it is to play
music for your job! The students were thrilled when he played multiple pieces on his trombone for them! What a special treat for the kids to get up and personal with this amazing musician!
Hudsonville Public Schools need YOU… If you love working with children, would like having time off with your children and grandchildren, have an excellent driving record and a good sense of direction, driving a school bus could be for you! We offer excellent pay and
training to obtain proper licensing. Please go to our website, hudsonvillepublicschools.org, or stop into the transportation department (3550 Allen) today to find out more and to apply to become a professional school bus driver.

For two consecutive weekends in March, Hudsonville High School had their musical performance of Les Misérables. Each performance received standing ovations from those in attendance. Thank you to the cast, crew, teachers, and auditorium director. A production of this magnitude would not be possible without you!

English Learner Students Visit GRCC
Thirty English Learners and former English Learners from Baldwin and Riley Street Middle Schools, and HHS went on a college visit to Grand Rapids Community College on April 11. The students enjoyed a presentation, campus tour, and a delicious trip to the on-campus food court. They learned about classes and programs offered at the college as well as other activities and organizations in which they might like to participate in. The students now know what a college campus looks like and have an idea of what university life might be like for them. Thank you GRCC for hosting us! For more information about our English Learner program, please visit our blog.
Owl Pellet Plunder!
The anticipation for the fourth graders at Georgetown Elementary had been building for weeks! “What tools will we be using?” some questioned. “May we wear rubber gloves?” others pleaded. The mention of dissecting owl pellets definitely got everyone’s attention. Well, the time finally arrived, and it didn’t take long before everyone was up to their elbows in exploration. We applied the Scientific Method to the important question, “What do owls eat?”
Purpose- What do you want to know?Research- What can you find out?Hypothesis- What do you predict?Experiment- How are you going to test it?Analysis- What happened during your experiment?Conclusion- What did you find out?
The pellets provided an excellent opportunity for discovering more about food chains and food webs.

HHS German Students Compete at U of M
For the past few months our German level three and four students have been working hard to prepare for the annual German Day competition held at U of M. This year the theme was "Wanderlust" which means a desire to travel. Students competed in the areas of art, reading, poetry, speaking, creating a comic, creating karaoke videos, and even a spelling bee all in the target language. We had five students place in the top three of their specific genre and level. Luke Balstad (South/RMS/current sophomore) and Isabella Tillotson (South/RMS/current sophomore) placed for their karaoke video translation of "Country Road" complete with drone footage! Luke Balstad also placed for his level two
sight reading piece. Genevieve Balivet (Alward/BMS/current sophomore) placed in level three poetry by memorizing and reciting "Lebensfahrt" by German poet Heinrich Heine. Makenzie Miller (Jamestown/RMS/current junior) placed for memorizing and reciting her level four poem, "Die Welt ist Weit," by Ingeborg Bachmann. Ryan VanderMarkt (Bauer/BMS/current sophomore) placed in his speaking personal interview. It was an amazing experience to see the level of study, and the amount of students that take German as a world language across the state. This was our second year attending the competition and look forward to making this an annual trip for our German language students.
Makerspace Becomes Reality
Jamestown Upper Elementary is in the process of renovating two spaces in the building to enhance learning opportunities for students. The first of those is a Makerspace which opened on Monday, April 29th, with a ribbon-cutting ceremony. A Makerspace is a collaborative workspace for making, learning, exploring, and sharing that uses high tech to no tech tools.
The funding for the room came directly from the PTA. Staff members visited Makerspaces in Rockford, talked with staff members there, and met to design a room for Jamestown. A teaching team of Mrs. Oldebekking, Ms. Nauta, Mrs. VanMaastricht, and Mrs. Reed were responsible for ordering, organizing, communicating, and getting the room up and running.

Congratulations to Baldwin and Riley Street Middle School Choirs!
In March, Riley Street and Baldwin Street Middle School choirs performed at the District Choral Festival. They sang two songs for a panel of 4 judges. Three judges gave the choir a score on their performance, and the fourth judge gave a clinic. After the initial performance, the choirs went to a separate room to sightread for another judge who gave them a score. Scoring includes a very detailed rubric and then a final rating based on the number of points earned. The highest number of points possible to receive is 30 per judge (30 x 3 for performance and 30 for sight reading = highest possible score of 120). The BMS Choirs (pictured above), led by Diane Scott, earned 120 points total. Earning a perfect score very rare accomplishment! The overall rating was an Excellent or Division 1.
The RMS Combined 7th & 8th Choirs, led by Victoria McClure, also had an outstanding performance at District Choral Festival and earned 118 points and a Division 1 rating (Excellent) this year. Ensembles who score over 112 points are acknowledged in MSVMA (Michigan School Vocal Music Association) for a superior performance. Both groups from RMS and BMS performed at the State Choral Festival at Hope College on May 3.
Elementary Running Clubs Have Another Successful Year! Each spring, the Elementary PE teachers from all seven elementary schools coach a Running Club in their buildings for 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. Students train both on their own and together as a team in each school. Topics such as healthy eating, personal goal setting, cardiovascular endurance, core strength, pace, running safety, and proper breathing techniques are taught during group practices. This year, over 350 students participated! The culmination of the running club is the Hudsonville Eagle 5K, which was held on March 23. The Eagle 5K starts and finishes at Hudsonville High School and is supported by many local businesses. The money from entry fees goes directly back to our Hudsonville Athletic Boosters! Our Boosters support all of our athletic teams and also provide scholarships to ten HHS seniors heading to college. This year, over 550 people participated in the Eagle 5K, most of which were student members of our elementary running clubs. Congratulations to all who participated!

Alward Elementary fourth grade students and their first grade buddies were finally able to see their flowers emerging from the bulbs they planted in the fall! They also worked together to pick up trash around the playground. It was a beautiful day for us here at Alward!
Jamestown Lower Elementary Celebrates Earth Day
Jamestown Lower Elementary's playground is looking a lot cleaner thanks to the second graders there! Second graders celebrated Earth Day by reading a variety of texts with the theme of caring for our Earth. They learned from the book The
Lorax, by Dr. Seuss that "UNLESS someone like you cares a whole awful lot, nothing is going to get better. It's not." To show that we care about our Earth, students put this learning into action by picking up trash on the playground. Students worked together to gather trash, and the kids were surprised by how much litter they found. Students were challenged to continue caring for our Earth every day, not just Earth Day. The smiles and full bags of trash showed us that it feels good to do our part and that we can make a difference to make our world a better place!
Holocaust Survivor Shares Her Harrowing Story
On April 25, Irene Miller, a Holocaust survivor, visited Hudsonville High School. She spoke about the extraordinary things she had to do to survive. Our students were very engaged when listening to her. Irene Miller is a true testament that you can overcome adversity and we thank her for sharing her incredible journey. If you would like to learn more about Irene Miller, please visit her website.
