We can’t wait to see our third graders shine in their final Celebration of Cultures performance as Hubbard students! This special event honors their hard work and highlights the rich diversity they’ve explored throughout their learning journey. Stay tuned!!
Our third grade families are in for a treat! Students are wrapping up their final rehearsals for the upcoming Celebration of Cultures show. Not only does this performance align with Unit 3 in reading and writing—Culture, Curiosity, and Research—but it also beautifully bridges the gap between classroom learning and real-world connection, showcasing the rich stories and traditions that shape who we are. 🌍💫
Students in Mrs. Weiss’s class were on the move today—literally! They practiced measuring their jumps using inches, feet, and yards, turning math into a fun and active learning experience.
In Mrs. Chantaski’s first grade class, morning meeting is more than just a routine—it’s a thoughtful way to start the day and build a strong classroom community. Students use the Mood Meter to express how they’re feeling with words like “ecstatic” or “a bit worried,” helping them develop emotional awareness and self-reflection. Most importantly, this daily practice creates a safe and supportive space where students feel seen, heard, and valued. When children feel safe to share, they’re more ready to learn, grow, and support one another.
First graders took on the Newark Museum with wide eyes and curious minds! From art to science, they explored, discovered, and soaked in every moment of wonder. What a memorable adventure!

What makes Hubbard so special? It’s the little moments—like taking a quick break to visit our flurry friend! No matter the classroom, students are always welcomed with open arms (and paws!) by teachers and staff alike, reminding us that kindness, connection, and comfort are part of the everyday magic at Hubbard School.
Hope you had a wonderful 3-day weekend! We sure missed these smiling faces. While students were off, Hubbard teachers joined forces with our colleagues from Tisdale and Dater to collaborate, learn, and grow together. We’re excited to bring new ideas and fresh energy into our classrooms this week!

Mrs. Reid’s preschool class embraces the Reggio-inspired approach by documenting students’ thoughts and creations, making their learning visible within the classroom.

Loose parts play further encourages creativity, problem-solving, and collaboration—turning everyday materials into meaningful exploration!
