HMMS FAM1LY,

FINAL NEWSLETTER OF THE 2022-2023 SY!!!

What a week at HMMS and we are almost there! We started off the week with a town hall meeting with District 1. Thank you to all that came out to visit HMMS that evening. It was good to hear dialogue on what is needed for the future of this county. Tuesday night we had our Upcoming 6th Grade Night and what a crowd it was! I can't wait to get those students in the building in the fall. We wrapped the week up with 6th and 7th grade Field Days. Our students endured the heat and competed their tails off! I am proud of the way they handled themselves and modeled REAL!

Oh... where are the 8th graders? Our 8th graders traveled to Washington D.C. this week. The pictures that Mr. Shoffner has sent back looks like they are having a blast and making memories that will last a life time. Check out some of their pictures in the newsletter below and on our Facebook page. We pray for safe travels as they return home this weekend.

Next week is also a big week for us at 435 Main Street! On Monday night we will celebrate students who received academic awards, REAL awards, and our FAM1LY members of the year at Awards Night. We have all grade levels getting the opportunity to visit TCAT Knoxville on Friday. We have 8th Grade Formal Friday night (I am polishing those dancing boots already) and we wrap up the week with 8th Grade Graduation at 10:00am Saturday morning in the UCHS Auditorium!

We will be sending out information through our Facebook page through out the summer on supply lists, schedules, upcoming events etc. We will start back the newsletter with some July updates and then we are going to move to a more student produced newsletter for next school year.

I can't believe this year is winding down. I have loved every minute of this year, well almost every minute. I am so excited to celebrate our 8th graders this coming week as their transition to UCHS, but I am also equally as excited to bring in another group of Union County students next school year. I am honored and humbled to be your principal and if you ever need anything please reach out!

Be R.E.A.L., not perfect!-
