Talon Talk

Talon Talk has taken a few weeks off, but we're back and ready to share what's been going on at HMS! Thank you for taking time to read through current events and information about the middle school's latest news!

School Counselor Week was February 6 - February 11 and it was a great opportunity to celebrate two people in our building that make HMS great: our counselors! Mrs. Hanneken and Miss Lim help our students and staff daily. They meet with students, have small group discussions with students with similar needs, plan our character education lessons for Advisory, do lunch duty, and so much more! We are so thankful to have both of them!

Here's what some of our students and staff had to say about our awesome counselors:

"I appreciate the counselors because they are always there and will always be there for me."

"They are empathetic, energetic, problem solvers, and sweet."

"I appreciate that our counselors are always available and open to us!"

"Our counselors make sure students are heard, validated, and know they matter. I love how they have created advisory life lessons, especially the tulip bulb planting. I can’t wait to see how beautiful the tulips are when they bloom."

"I appreciate that Miss Lim and Mrs. Hanneken are always here to help me when I need it! Thank you for all you do at HMS!"

Happy School Counselors Week!
