Wishing everyone a happy, healthy, and restful holiday season! Students return to school on Monday, January 5, 2026.
Earlier today, the Special Olympics team competed in a basketball game against Brooks Middle School. Great job to all the Hauser students who participated!
We were so lucky to have Principal Ian and Principal Eric assume their roles as Hauser principals for the day! Throughout the day, Ian and Eric helped out in the office, delivered tasty treats to teachers, selected our passing period playlists, helped Hauser students select library books, and visited Central to spend time with the elementary school students and teachers. They also earned a special lunch that they got to share with a group of friends. Thanks Principal Ian and Principal Eric for all your hard work and help today!

Last Thursday, members of Hauser's Library Club helped deliver food to the Little Food Pantry at the Riverside Presbyterian Church. Students brought in donations and learned about the need in the Riverside area and how they might further help fight hunger in the community.
Hauser's Paw Prints TV visited RBTV this week! Students toured the facility, trained, and used the equipment to record their in-studio segments for Hauser's trimester news show. Our 8th graders had a great time!
Yesterday, 6th grade math teacher Mrs. O'Donnell hosted a Dunkin' Donuts themed classroom transformation to review for an upcoming decimals test. Mrs. O'Donnell has different themes for each unit and finds that these "transformations" are great ways to engage her students in learning. 🍩
