In honor of National School Counselors Week, we were proud to recognize our school counselor, Mrs. Linden during School Pride Assembly. She truly exemplifies R.I.S.E. through her empathy, encouragement, and unwavering support for our students!! Her door is always open to every Hubbard student, and her kindness and care make a lasting impact each day. She is not only a trusted support for students, but also a positive light for colleagues, offering compassion, guidance, and encouragement to all. The entire Hubbard community is grateful for her and the difference she makes is truly a bright a bright spot ✨.

A meaningful moment celebrating our Empathy recipients and the many ways our students demonstrate RISE. When we come together like this, Hubbard truly feels like home. We hope you can feel the warmth and care that shine through each photo. 💙💛

School Pride Day Tomorrow!

Global School Play Day reminds us that learning does not always look the same. Through unstructured play, students build independence, communication, critical thinking skills, empathy, and collaboration, which live at the heart of the Profile of a Ramsey Graduate 💙💛

Stories connect us, words inspire us, reading aloud changes us 💛 Even on Global School Play Day, students found time to share stories with siblings, younger classes, and the friends they learn and play with every day. #WorldReadAloudDay

Tomorrow is Global School Play Day and World Read Aloud Day. This annual, worldwide event is held on the first Wednesday of February and is dedicated to fostering unstructured, screen free play for students. Students will spend the entire day engaging in traditional play and sharing picture books with their classmates. Please remember to send in any type of game and a favorite picture book. No electronics please. We cannot wait to hear students reflect on their experiences throughout the day.

Third graders across Hubbard School are learning how to craft strong introductions that hook their reader and set the stage for their writing.

Morning meeting took on special meaning as Mrs. Finnegan taught third graders about Germany, inspiring questions, curiosity, and excitement. Moments like this support the learning happening in Unit 3 as students explore cultures through research and inquiry.

Cold temperatures outside, warm hearts inside as these HU third graders learn and grow together 🫶🏻

Collaboration in action as Mrs. Crispino and Mrs. Weiss support students through the Cultures, Curiosity, and Research unit, guiding them to ask meaningful thin and thick questions.

Two students in Mrs. Murphy’s class beautifully and eloquently shared their understanding of empathy and explained why Hubbard has a lot of heart. According to the students, empathy means, “Putting yourself in someone else’s shoes to understand how they feel. Having empathy is important because you can feel what they feel and maybe help them out.” Their words remind us that empathy starts with noticing others and taking small actions that can make a big difference in someone’s day! 🥹

Second graders in Mrs. Royle’s class building strong reading and spelling skills through focused decoding and encoding practice.

On this extremely cold day, our third grade safety patrols stepped up to help make sure students entered the building safely and out of the cold 🥶💙💛

Nothing beats your second grade teacher who makes word study feel exciting, joyful, and full of discovery! 💡

Students in Mrs. Assor’s class wrapped up their How-To writing unit by celebrating with their reading buddies in 3Frank. This cross-grade collaboration gave students the opportunity to share their writing with an authentic audience, and the kids loved reading their pieces together in the third-grade forts. It was a meaningful way to celebrate learning and strengthen connections across grade levels 💙💛
