Stay gold, 7th grade! Our annual Outsiders day brought the greasers and Socs to life once again!










Earlier this week, Hauser’s new instructional specialist, Mrs. Klein, collaborated with students in Mrs. Nesler’s eighth-grade English Language Arts class as they engaged in a Socratic seminar on poetry.

Yesterday, the 8th grade girls' volleyball team battled the Hauser teachers in the annual Staff vs. Student Pink Out event. The match went to a third set, and the 8th graders narrowly defeated the teachers with a 17-15 final score.
Congrats to the 8th graders on maintaining their undefeated season, and thank you to all the teachers and staff who participated in and helped out with the Pink Out!
