HMS FAMILIES:

What a great week of weather! Let’s hope the weather is in our favor during the Spring break and we can all enjoy some much needed outdoor activities. I know for me I already have a few tee times this weekend and next week along with tickets to a ball game. I hope everyone has an enjoyable and safe week off. 

Please take a moment to read over a few important updates and reminders.

  • Student Absences and Early Pick Up - 

    • To report an absence, parents need to log into PowerSchool and click on “Forms”  to enter an absence.

    • If you need to pick up your child early for an appointment, please come to the front door with your driver license as you will need to check in with the Greeter and sign out your child. 

      • If the early pick-up is known prior to the start of school, please send in a note with your child in the morning to give to our Greeter, Mrs.Tilt, or email ktilt@milforded.org. Our Greeter will then give your child an early release pass to come to the lobby to make the pick up more efficient.
