  • It's cold outside! Check your child's clothes before they leave the house. Students should be dressed warmly and in layers so they can adjust to be comfortable!

  • Are your kids up to date on all their vaccines?
    Vaccines are safe and effective in protecting children against a variety of potentially dangerous infectious diseases. The Alabama Chapter-American Academy of Pediatrics (AL-AAP) and the Alabama Department of Public Health encourage parents to keep their children and teens healthy by ensuring they receive vaccines according to the recommended schedule. Vaccines are important as they help children's immune systems fight infections.
  • Attendance!  We need our students at school to learn and to comply with the state's attendance law. Please email Ms. Chambers, hcms.attendance@hsv-k12.org, with a reason or doctor's note if your child is absent. Thanks for helping us make sure your child's attendance record is accurate! 
  • Looking for a way to donate and support HCMS? We are starting boys and girls soccer teams this year and we could use your help fundraising for uniforms and equipment. 

Greetings Bulls,
