Halloween is coming early to HMS! On Friday, October 28 the HMS Student Council is hosting a Fright Night party in the POD Commons. Fright Night for 5th & 6th grades will be from 3:30pm-5:00pm, and 5:15pm-7:00pm for 7th & 8th grades. Students are encouraged wear costumes as there will be a costume contest along with music, dancing, and food!

Parents; Be on the lookout for a paper packet coming home with your child from the school. This packet contains several permission, acknowledgement, and consent forms needed in order for the school to properly monitor your child’s involvement in various aspects of the school programs and activities. Additionally, you will find forms regarding registration fees and health history. When completed, please return these packets to the HMS office. Thank you for your timely response.
