HMS Families: We are sending home a letter concerning a change in the Chromebook access for students in the 6th and 7th Grades. This change is being implemented to improve device accountability, ensure they are properly charged and maintained, and to reduce the risks of loss or damage. Chromebooks for 6th and 7th grade will now be on a daily check in and check out basis, and not go home with the student. 8th Grade will continue with their current device usage. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us at school.
HMS Families: Just a reminder that our Holiday Concert is Wednesday at 7:00 p.m. at the 7th Street Theater. We hope to see you there!

HMS Girls Basketball: On the Week at a Glance it shows no JV game for Wednesday. It looks like there is indeed a JV game at home vs. Rochester. The lineup is 4:00-JV, 5:15-7th Varsity, 6:30-8th Varsity. Sorry for the confusion.
HMS Families: There is a menu change for Tuesday: Instead of Chicken Burgers, the cafeteria will be serving Turkey Pot Pies.
