Welcome to the 2017-2018 School Year!!
Hello HMS Families,
We are excited to start the 2017-2018 school year and look forward to partnering with you so that your child has their best year yet!! Please visit our new website as we will be continually updating information throughout the course of the year. Skyward will continue to be an excellence resource where many teachers will communicate upcoming assignments and where student grades can be viewed. Teachers will be sending home a syllabus in these first few weeks of school with additional classroom info. If you have any classroom questions please contact your child's teacher or counselor.
Once we get started with our daily student run announcements they will be posted each afternoon to our school's Facebook page and our school website. Regularly viewing these is a great way to stay connected with what is going on at HMS!
Thanks for viewing our Monthly Newsletter!! Go Bronchos!!

Exciting Day 1 Activities planned for our 6th graders!!
We are excited to be sharing our first day back to school with Central Michigan University’s Leader Advancement Scholars. While at HMS, the LAS will lead our 6th graders in innovative, intentional, and inclusive leadership activities designed to promote individual growth and a spirit of collaboration. We believe it will be a great way to build connections as students from our 4 elementary schools come together!!
Morning Drop Off
Please only drop off students in the drop off lanes!! Students dropped off in the parking lot create an unsafe situation!!
If you are dropping off students in the morning please pull all the way up in between the "Drop Off" signs. Our plan is to have cars let students out in "pods" of 6. We'd like to fit 3 cars in front of the crosswalk, then have those 3 cars and the 3 cars behind the crosswalk let students out. After students exit the next "pod" of 6 pulls up and follows suit!!
This system made the morning drop-off move more smoothly last year!! Thanks for your help in making this a safe and efficient process!!
Remember students may enter the building at 7:15am
