Message from Principal Bruder
Hi Haisley Families,
It has been wonderful
being at your school, getting to know your children and interacting with
parents and staff. I know how proud you are of the strong community of
learners you have built over the years.
The “I Am Thankful
For…” assembly was outstanding. It is obvious how much the Kindergarten
and Young 5 students look to their 5th grade buddies for support and
friendship.
Thank you for welcoming
me into your school community. If you see me in the halls or lunchroom,
please stop me and introduce yourself. I will be at the PTO meeting on Thursday and look forward to meeting
some of you there.
Yours,
Shelley Bruder
“Substitute” principal

More Little Free
Libraries for Haisley Community
We are pleased to announce that several
Haisley neighborhoods will have Little Free Libraries installed. Earlier this
fall, the PTO contacted the teacher of Skyline High School’s engineering class.
Two students stepped forward to take this project on. They have since been
awarded a $2,000 grant from the AAPS Educational Foundation. The students have
created an online survey to gauge how much the libraries have impacted
households. If you have used a Little Free Library, please take a few minutes
to fill out their survey here.
In November, Superintendent Swift presented
her "State of the District" address to the Ann Arbor School Board.

The Michigan Snowsports Industries Association
(MSIA) wants to give Michigan kids an opportunity to get out, have fun and get
healthy this winter. This is why MSIA has established a state-wide program that
provides every fourth and now also 5th grader in Michigan the opportunity to
ski for free. Students can obtain a “Cold is Cool” Ski & Ride Passport that
gives them up to three free lift tickets or trail passes at 27 participating
ski areas, plus additional discounts on the slopes and in Michigan ski
shops. Check it out here!
