HMS Students have very subtle ways of reminding Mr. Cook and Ms. Ounsted that it is the 67th day of school....

HMS 6th Grade Students: Our second group of 6th Grade students will be heading to Seattle tomorrow barring any road conditions that warrant cancellation. PLEASE make sure that if your child is going, they have a rain jacket as there will be some walking once we get there. We EXPECT to be back at 5:00 ish, but we could be earlier or later depending on traffic and road conditions. We will have students call you as we get to Montesano. PLEASE MAKE SURE YOUR STUDENT HAS A GOOD CONTACT NUMBER. Students need to be at HMS at 7:00 a.m.

HMS 7th and 8th Varsity Girls Basketball--We are moving up your leave time to 1:30 p.m. today. This is because of the possible need to take an alternate route if there is localized flooding on Highway 12. The girls will be dismissed from class at 1:15. If you need to bring your daughter stuff for the trip, please have it here by 1:15 so we can be sure they have it.

HMS Parents: If you are picking your student up today, might we suggest using the back parking lot (The entrance is by Emerson Field)??? Cubby Lake (which is our front parking lot on most days) is an ocean right now, and your students will likely have very wet feet by the time they get to you.

HMS 6th Grade Parents: If your child was on the December 5 Nutcracker Field Trip...we have made GREAT Time through the Friday Traffic. We expect them back by 4: 30 at the latest...they are currently just outside McCleary as of 3:35 pm!!!

HMS Week at a Glance: December 8-12. Have a great weekend!

Game time change for Girls Basketball tonight at Rochester. The 8th Varsity will play the 5:15 game, and the 7th Varsity will play the 6:30 game.
Coach Abbi sent the particulars of tonight's trip on Final Forms.

Foodball at HMS: This week marks the annual Foodball Food Drive for the Food Banks in Aberdeen and Hoquiam. The high school students from both schools are out and about holding events and trying to raise as much money as they can. This year the timeline for Foodball is very compressed (7 days). At HMS we basically have TWO days to hold some sort of Foodball competition, so we are going to do our best. Our Homeroom Challenge is basically pitting the students of the Homerooms into a competition to see who can raise the most money, per kid, in TWO days. There is some strategy involved. Day one (Wednesday) is about building up your homeroom's total donations. Day Two (Thursday ) is about bombing out your rival homeroom by donating to them. Thursday donations to another class SUBTRACT from their totals. Afterwards we will count and declare a winner. ALL proceeds go to the food banks.
