HMS FAMILIES:

It appears that we may have turned the corner on warmer weather being the norm. The best thing about yesterday’s weather and the upcoming weekend is the diminished wind. Temperatures are forecasted to  possibly rise above 70 this weekend. I hope everyone is able to get out and enjoy this Spring weather.

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

    • 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.
