Voice & Choice at HMS
This week we started Voice & Choice at Hobart Middle School. Voice & Choice takes place during our morning homeroom time. When students are meeting expectations in school, performing well in class, etc., they earn the privilege of choosing which type of class they want to attend that week. Our wonderful teachers offer so many fun options for our HMS Brickies! We are so grateful for their passion and creativity!
Check out our list of V&C classes below, as well as some pictures from our first week of V&C!
It's good to be a Brickie!
Sincerely,
Nikki Neeley (Principal) & Courtney Gill (Assistant Principal)

Boys Cross Country Thursday 9/1 Meet Recap
Our Brickie boys competed for the first time ever on our new home course at Hobart High School last night. A new course means that our winner from last night, Nolan Shaginaw, set the course record with a 1322 in first place. Peter Janda came in second. Kyle Smith blazed to a 4th place finish- Darieon Sutherland finished right after Kyle and Richard Woodruff finished out our top 5. We had strong Brickie finishes from all our young men and are proud of their efforts as we defeated the Pierce Pirates. We look forward to building on this momentum throughout the year.
