Hello HMS Community

We hope our Hammond staff are feeling the love today with the bagel bar! We truly appreciate all that you do and to our parents for always stepping up to donate and support. Thank you again to everyone who came out to our Nothing Bundt Cakes fundraiser last week and especially for the staff donations, that was a great surprise!

Upcoming Events

SKATE NIGHT – We’re working on getting a new date for a skate night so stay tuned!

SPRING FLING DANCE – Friday, March 28th 6:30pm – 8:30pm

The winter dance was such a success, we’re going to have another one in the spring! This will be a free event again with concessions. There will be links sent out closer to the date for RSVPs (so we can get a head count of what attendance to expect), concessions donations, and chaperones!
