Greetings Bulls, 

I want to take a second to thank our terrific PTA. As this year wraps up, they continue to work countless hours behind the scenes supporting our students, staff, and school. They provide a wide range of support from student rewards to classroom teaching materials and equipment. If you can support by applying for a PTA board position next year, please do so. HCMS is a terrific school due to the PTA and parent support we have. Thank you for considering taking an active role in your child's school. We need you. 

Go Bulls!

Natalie Smith
