Miners in the Middle
September 8, 2024
Week of September 9th - 14th
Dear Parents and Guardians,
I can hardly believe we’ve already been in school for over a month! As we move past the “honeymoon phase” of the school year, I want to remind everyone of the importance of reinforcing our school-wide expectations at home. Please continue to go over these with your child and encourage them to stay focused on making good choices.
Also, just a quick reminder—eligibility checks are run each week. Be sure to check your student's grades in the online gradebook to help them stay on track and avoid falling behind.
Thank you for your continued support!
Warm regards,
Nicole Green, Principal
Classroom Expectations
These are our school-wide expectations for our students. Positive behavior fosters an environment where ALL students can learn and grow. It is our hope that our HMS families will discuss our school-wide behavior expectations and encourage positive behaviors at school and home.
Common Areas Expectations
Our school-wide expectations extend beyond the classroom. It is important that students also realize they are accountable for their behaviors in the hallway, cafeteria and at all school sponsored activities on and off campus.
