The weather outside is frightful, but our students have been delightful! Between our winter storms, HBS Pelicans found time to carol for neighbors from here to the Embassy Suites, bringing cheer to the Hollywood Beach community. Mr. Frank got the ball rolling with a Winter Showcase, and several classes jumped to join in the fun. Families were so caring and giving, providing treats to the staff for their hard work, and the joy and light in our students' hearts shone on their faces, as you can see! Thanks to all the wonderful HBS Staff for making the holiday merriment happen, and hugs to our HBS families for their thoughtful words, cards, and gifts this holiday season!

When you can be anything, be kind! HBS is all set to celebrate the Kindness Week Challenge! Check the calendar each day to see what to wear and how to participate in each day's challenges. We are part of a nationwide effort to make kindness the rule every day, not just today. 17 million students in 33,000 schools, in 50 states and 115 countries will participate in this positive movement! So enjoy and go the extra mile to be kind to all those around you! ​

We are here to support our families! Thanks to the efforts of our Counselors and the collaboration with Logrando Bienestar (Achieving Well-Being) and Ventura County Behavioral Health, HESD is offering a six part series of Healthy Body - Health Mind parent/guardian workshops. These workshops are designed to help parents/guardians understand the importance of emotional and mental health. The first workshop takes place on February 15th.
