Code Red Lockdown Drill

Hampshire Middle School will participate in a lockdown drill on Wednesday, September 18th. This drill is required by Illinois State Law. The purpose of this drill is for students and staff to be aware of our safety procedures if we should need to go into a lockdown during an emergency situation. If you have any questions regarding this drill, please contact the main office. Thank you.

Positive Behaviors Reminder: Cell Phones

We wanted to take some time to review our district's cell phone policy at school and the help we need to ensure all of your students are safe and supported at HMS. Although students may choose to use their cell phones before/after school, during passing periods, and while at lunch, students are expected to keep their phones stored in their lockers during class. We are asking that you talk with your student about these expectations and reiterate that they should only engage in positive behaviors while on their phones.
