What a wonderful service project! It's “Operation Warm Feet” in 6 Service, collecting sock donations for the Haven of Rest! Students have collected 498 pairs of socks towards our goal of 1200. 4 days to go…!

 

So inspiring to hear our Service Learning students share about their projects from this semester! They researched an area of interest, and took action to help make a difference. And today, they educated others! Our students are truly changing the world! 

 

 

 

Thank you to Brad Gessler from Summit County Prosecutor’s Office, for sharing with 8th graders about the role of prosecutor and defense attorneys, as students prepare to cite evidence and argue their case with Edgar Allen Poe’s The Telltale Heart.

 

 

 

7th grade Social Studies students are making a scaled replica of Rome! Integrating multiple subject areas into one HUGE project, and collaborating with students between class periods!

End of Day Pickup Information

• A special request/reminder from our maintenance and transportation staff: Please do not pick up your child after school in the gravel lot between the HMS and Evamere.  Our maintenance employees and bus drivers are having difficulty getting through.
• Our pickup process and traffic pattern can be found on our website. Please enter via Oviatt and pick up your child in the front circle.
• Thank you so much for your help with this, to ensure our students' safety.

 

HMS Talent Show!

• HMS has talent! We will be sharing next week on announcements that HMS is hosting a middle school Talent Show on February 9!
• Interested students can pick up an Audition Packet at the Student Resource Center (SRC) before Winter Break. Audition Permission Forms are due to the SRC by January 10. 
• More information will be shared as the event nears! We can't wait to see our students shine!

 

Greetings from the Attendance Desk and the Clinic,

• It's that time of year when sniffles and sneezes are being passed around. Our school has the privilege of having Nurse Becca with us at Hudson Middle School. If your child is ill throughout the school day, we ask that they first visit Nurse Becca, instead of calling/texting on their own for a parent pick up. This allows the student to be seen by a medical professional for a medical dismissal. Students who leave without visiting the clinic will be noted as a Bypass, not a medically excused absence.
  Thank you for your assistance, Tammy Brodbeck Attendance Secretary
