Congratulations to the 7th grade boys and girls teams who both brought home 1st place plaques today at the Mascoutah Relays! Way to go!
Dear 8th Grade Families,
Chromebook drop-off for current 8th grade students will take place during the school day on May 19.
All 8th grade students must bring their Chromebook and charger to school that day so both items can be returned before the end of the year.
Students will receive a new Chromebook at the start of 9th grade, during their freshman year. Chromebooks will still be available for students to use at school after the return date, if needed.
Thank you for helping make sure devices and chargers are returned on time.
Have a great summer!

Softball Summer Camp!


HMS Student Council had a great time at Altitude today!



Happy May Birthdays, Team 6 Black!
