🏀 LITTLE HAWK BASKETBALL IS BACK! 🏀
27th Annual Little Hawk Basketball Tournament
📅 January 16 & 17
This tournament relies entirely on volunteers, and this year they need help filling 150+ volunteer shifts at the concession stand, ticket gate, referee table, and clean-up.
But here’s why this matters, even if your child doesn’t play basketball ⬇️
Because of Little Hawk:
- Monthly yoga for ALL students continues at Andrew
- Ice Cream Socials are sponsored for students earning monthly awards
- Over $100,000 has been donated back to Andrew Schools over the last 26 years
This is bigger than basketball. These programs reach every classroom, every grade, every student!
If every family takes one shift, that’s all it takes to keep these opportunities going. And it's fun seeing the school so full of activity!
If you can’t work a shift, they would love donations of baked goods for the concession stand!
Thank you for showing our kids what it looks like when a community shows up.🙌

Don't forget that our 12 Days of Christmas Dress Up Days begins THIS Thursday, December 4th with "Cozy Christmas Day". We encourage students to wear their Christmas socks and/or slippers that day! You can find the 12 days of dress up calendar below.
I wanted to send out a message to remind you to send your child with winter gear. Students need to have all gear (Coat, Snowpants, boots, and a hat) to play out in the snow. If they do not have all the gear, they will need to remain on the blacktop. Also, we require your child to wear a COAT during the winter months to go outside. A hooded sweatshirt does not give your child enough protection outside.
We have received some donations from our community, so if you are in need of assistance to get winter clothing, please reach out to Jaci Hilmer, our Andrew School counselor.
We have updated our Special Education Delivery Plan, and it will remain on our website for public comment until December 10, 2025. The plan will then go to the school board for approval. If you have comments regarding the plan, please contact Mr. Trenkamp, Special Education Director at Nick.trenkamp@andrewcsd.com
