Learn & Share | School Planning & Engagement
We know we make better decisions to support student learning when we build understanding and work together. That’s why we are asking you to share your perspectives about our school development plan, school budget and school fees. Families were invited to learn about School Planning at this week’s School Council Meeting. All families are encouraged to complete the survey whether or not they attended the engagement session.
- The survey is open until March 24, 2025.
- Please click here to complete the survey.
- Watch this short video to learn about the planning work schools do to improve and support student learning.
Your input is important to us, and we appreciate you taking the time to share your perspectives.
Walking and Wheeling to School | Bike & Scooter Locks
As the weather warms up, we encourage all students to walk, bike, or scooter to school. It’s a great way to stay active, enjoy the sunshine, and reduce our environmental footprint. If your child is bringing a bike or scooter, please ensure they have a sturdy lock to secure their ride, as scooters are not permitted inside the school. Thank you for helping us promote a healthy, eco-friendly school community.

Time: 11:00am – 12:00pm
On Friday April 4, 2025, we invite all our HMS families to join us for an opportunity to show off our amazing Math skills. Throughout the year, students have been focused on improving their math fluency by asking questions, demonstrating resiliency through problem-solving, and having a growth mindset. Families will first attend a short presentation, followed with Math games and activities back in the classrooms.
Although this is a non-Kindergarten day (Mrs. Wilson and Ms. Ross are not here that day), Kindergarten families are still welcome to attend the Family Math Event. There will be a self-directed center for you to participate in with your child after the presentation.
We hope you will join us for this event. If you plan on attending, please RSVP using this link so we can plan accordingly (chairs, supplies, etc.).
We hope we will see you there!
