HMS Families: We have been experiencing a trend brought on by some videos on social media that involve sticking a graphite pencil lead into the USB port of a chromebook. This causes them to spark and smoke, and the pencil lead to get super heated. This can lead to computer damage as well as burns. Despite numerous warnings this continues to happen. We are asking for your help in speaking to your student about this, as it may lead to a suspension from school. Thank you.
HMS Families: Today is the final deadline for yearbook sales. $16 is the cost. Please go to this link: https://jostensyearbooks.com/?REF=A09023930. ALSO today is the final deadline for parent permission slips for the Youth Mental Health Walk. We have to have those in today in order to clear students medically by tomorrow. You can send a signed permission slip pic to dcook@hoquiam.net and make the deadline.
HMS Families: The walk to suppor Youth Mental Health will be Friday at 12:15 pm. Students were given permission slips to bring home yesterday for signature and return. Students must return these by the end of the day tomorrow (Thursday) to be allowed to join the walk. If your student needs another slip they are available in the office. If there is no signed slip we cannot allow your student to participate.

We didn't want to alarm you, and also you need to know that no one will be answering the door until the drill ends. Please wait in your car, until it is complete. Thank you!
