GOOD CLICKS
Why Hogarth? Where did the name come from? Visit The Write Sisters blog to find out. I wrote the December 5, 2008 entry entitled Poetry Friday: The Distressed Poet, in which I discuss the Hogarth name.
PLEASE NOTE: What's Happening at Hogarth, Andrea's blog for Hogarth parents, is no longer available to the general public. If you are a Hogarth parent, please email Andrea for more information.

EK and PK kids are going to Annie! We'll be attending the 9 o'clock show on Wednesday morning, November 17th at the Leddy Center on Ladd's Lane right here in Epping. Tickets are $8 for students and chaperones, which is a BIG savings on the regular price of $16 to $18! This special event takes the place of classes that day, and we will not be meeting at Hogarth for either EK or PK. Plan to drop your child directly at the Leddy Center at 8:45 a.m. the morning of November 17th. The show should be over by 11:15 a.m., but I ask that you be waiting in the lobby by 11:05 a.m. in case we're through early. If your child attends the Creative Play Group and you would like to join us for Annie, we'd love to have you! Any Creative Play Group children attending, however, must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian for the performance. I need to give the Leddy Center folks a head count by Tuesday morning, September 21st so that they can set aside the right number of tickets. Please email me to let me know if you will be attending, and how many tickets you'll be needing. We need at least 3 EK parents and 2 PK parents to volunteer to chaperone. Chaperones must purchase tickets for themselves as well as their children. Thanks in advance to our wonderful chaperones!

**Hogarth Kids in the News!** Katie Dawley, HCDS class of '98, was the subject of a June 18, 2010 Foster's Daily Democrat feature story. Check out this most amazing Hogarth alumnus, and read what she had to say about her kindergarten teacher. (That would be me!)

We've finished up the 2009-2010 academic year and are about to start our summer program. In addition to teaching this program, I'll be writing biographies for Apprentice Shop's America's Notable Women series. I'm also going to present a workshop for Hogarth parents about kindergarten readiness at a date to be announced.
