TOMORROW: Civis Femina
Monday, 5th Period, Room 320.
We've decided to support young girls who want to pursue their education in Nepal! We will be holding fundraisers after the break and once we're in touch with the school, will be communicating with our beneficiaries through letter-writing, etc. Join us! (Civis Femina seeks to empower girls in their young ages to step up and use the power of their education to bring beautiful change to the lives of women that are less privileged.) COME AND JOIN US! Contact our club at hunter@civisfemina.org for more information.
Overheard in Hunter (from The Observer)

Greetings from the HCHS Library Committee
PTA
Seeking new Chairperson for Library Committee (for Fall 2011)!
This is an easy and very rewarding job.
Requirements:
- support and advocate for our library
- maintain open communication with Librarian, Eugene Lim
- convene 2 or 3 meetings a year (via email) and meet in the HCHS Library
- co-write (with Mr. Lim) an occasional letter (to college or alums)
- submit 1 or 2 articles in Hilites to keep parents informed
- attend PTA meetings
- other tasks as needed
As outgoing Chair, I will train you and advise you. Currently there are 12 members on the committee. Chances are that one of the many 7th grade parents on the committee might step up as co-chair.
My daughter is a senior, so this is it for me. I have found this position fulfilling and have come to admire Mr. Lim and have enjoyed working with him and the other parents. Please send any responses or queries to Rebecca Reitz (rebreitz@aol.com).
