Ms. Rodriguez and Mrs. Harton’s second-grade classes wrote persuasive speeches on whether the War Hawks should declare war on the British or why merchants opposed it.
Ms. Rodriguez’s class outlined reasons for war, while Mrs. Harton’s class presented arguments against it. After sharing speeches with paired students from the opposite class, they took a vote to see if opinions changed, resulting in some students switching sides!

Hutchins students participated in assemblies where they reviewed the character trait of TRUSTWORTHINESS and introduced the character trait of RESPECT. Each homeroom class voted on two students who demonstrated the trait of trustworthiness and those students were recognized! Each month students and staff focus on a character value that focuses on building students’ character, social-emotional, and academic skills, while shaping a positive school culture.
Let's have some Principal Appreciation Month fun!
