HMS FAMILIES:
New England weather keeps us on our toes. Tomorrow’s weather outlook seems to have improved yet Sunday may bring more rain. Whatever the weather ends up being, I hope everyone has a great weekend.
Please take a moment to read over a few important updates and reminders.
Yearbook Distribution -
HMS 2021-2022 Yearbooks will be distributed to students (to those who had ordered online) for yearbook signing on Friday, June 17.
If you need to verify if a yearbook was ordered, please email mliontas@milforded.org.
If one was not not ordered and you would like to purchase one, you should send in $30 cash in an envelope with the child's name and homeroom #. It is first come, first served as we only have a small supply to sell.
Cell phones -
As the district policy states, cell phones must be turned off or on silent and left in backpacks, stored in a student’s locker or other place designated by building administration.
Cell phones can be taken by teachers if seen and turned into the greeter for the remainder of the day. Please note that if a teacher notices a cell phone in a student's pocket or sweatshirt it can be taken as it is not in a designated location.
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.
Foran Cheerleading Clinic -

Keeping us informed of changes -
If you will be moving or your child will be attending another school for the 2022-2023 school year, please contact the Harborside Office at 203-783-3523 so we can provide the appropriate form(s) and update our records.
