May 10 Superintendent Update Graphic

May 10, 2023


Good afternoon Warren Scholars, Families, and Staff, 

We have some important information for the week of May 10th.


I want to start by saying thank you to our amazing Warren teachers and staff! It is fitting that May is the time we show appreciation for the countless hours and care our staff put into their work and their students. We have incredible adults working with our kids in Warren! As we celebrate our teachers and staff this week, I am asking our students, our families, and our staff to share a positive story about someone who is making a difference, going above and beyond, and who has demonstrated their #WarrenWill. We have created a #WarrenWill form which is linked here, and there is a tab on our main District website. Your stories will be shared directly with your special person. 


We are excited to be hosting our first district-wide Family Literacy Night on Thursday, May 18th, from 4:00 - 6:00 pm at Moorhead Community Resource Center. Come join us in kicking off our summer reading program by taking home books for students of all ages. Learn more about the Reading resources available to students over the summer, and come join the fun with food and some exciting giveaways! 

Parents & Caregivers can now register their Kindergarten - 7th grade students in one of our summer enrichment classes taking place June 5th - 15th. You can explore the enrichment opportunities available and register your child for one of these extended learning opportunities on our District website linked here. 



I am also excited to share that we have a special family night on Friday, May 19th, at the Indiana Fever vs. Connecticut Sun game! The Indiana Fever has provided our district with a special discounted ticket price! Tickets can be purchased here before the deadline on May 12th!

I want to conclude with my sincere gratitude to our families, staff, and community for your support in passing our referendum last week. Because of you, we will be able to sustain the essential programming needed to provide a safe and high-quality education for our students. Although the new referendum will begin in 2024, we will be preparing ongoing communications with our community to keep them informed of how the money is being utilized. 


Thank you for your continued support and investment in our students, staff, and schools! 

Together, #WarrenWill grow our students! 

Dr. Tim Hanson, Superintendent of Schools for MSD Warren Township
