HAPPY FRIDAY HMS FAMILIES:
As we approach the halfway point of November, mother nature has provided us with some amazing day time weather. 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.
HMS Bell Calibration to Cell Phones and Computers -
As of this afternoon, the school bells are now in sync with cell phone and computer clocks.
We apologize for the long delay on getting the bells fixed and any issues this may have caused for students and families.
Picture Day - November 23rd in the morning
It’s time for students to have their portrait taken! All students will have their photo taken for the Yearbook. Portrait packets may be purchased through Lifetouch.
Order envelopes were sent home with students. Quick and easy online ordering also available on mylifetouch.com Use the Picture ID: EVTRMVGXR to place your order. If you use the envelope, have your child hand it to the photographer on the 23rd.
