Upcoming Events
The Hacker Middle School Science Fair will be Thursday, February 10th from 1:45 – 2:45p.m. We will have science fair experiments, completed by spectacular junior scientists, on display in the gym. We invite you to come see the scientific method process in action!
Parent Teacher Conferences
Spring parent / teacher conferences will be held Thursday, February 16th from 2:00-4:00pm and 5:00-8:00pm. As we did in the fall, we will have scheduled conferences this year. If they haven’t already, your student’s teacher will reach out to you soon with scheduling details and options.
By holding conferences early, it allows important conversations about your student’s education to occur earlier in the semester so any concerns can be addressed in time for change to occur prior to the end of the year.
HMS Night with the Steelheads
This year's HMS Night with the Steelheads on February, 25th at 7:00pm. For the special ticket price of $15.00 you receive admission to the Idaho Steelheads game on Saturday, February 25th at 7:00 pm vs. the Maine Mariners. Each ticket will receive a voucher good for a Double R Ranch Hot Dog, bag of Lay's Chips and small Pepsi product. For every ticket purchased through this link, $5 will go directly back to Hacker Middle School! Ticket orders must be placed at least 24 hours prior to the event start time OR subject to availability.

It’s a fun night out that you won’t want to miss!
Other Notes
A reminder that we are not able to allow gifts of any kind, including flowers, balloons, chocolates, etc., to be brought or delivered on Valentine’s Day. The sheer volume is unmanageable, and storage of these items is impossible.
