We encourage you to join us in Celebrating School Wellness Week, here at HMS-because HEALTHY KIDS LEARN BETTER!!!!!!!

The HMS American Heart Challenge is coming to an end. Monday, April 8th, is the last day to hand in any money that you have raised. This also means you still have time to raise money, if you have not done so already! So far, HMS has raised almost $4,000 for the American Heart Association. 

Didn’t get enough Volleyball during PE class? The Volleyball Club is coming to HMS and is looking for members who enjoy the game, want to improve their skills or just want to have fun! Please see Mrs. Pursell in the gym for a permission slip or if you have any questions.

TODAY is the last day that the Earth Day EnvironMentors are accepting donations of 2-litter soda bottles. For each bottle that you bring to Mrs. Simons in room B9, you will get a coupon for a free cookie in the cafeteria, so remember to bring them to her by the end of the day. Thank you for your support!
