We are grateful for our continued partnership with Interquest Detection Canines for visiting our school today and helping us keep our campus safe and secure. 🐾

Their work supports a shared priority: every student and staff member should feel safe at school. Through a friendly, unintimidating, yet effective approach, Interquest focuses on deterrence, prevention, inspections, and education—helping keep drugs and other contraband off campus.

Thank you to the Interquest team for your professionalism, care, and commitment to school safety.

We’ve been loving the holiday cheer around HMS! Yesterday, our halls were full of festive fun with Ugly Christmas Sweater Day—the brighter, bolder, and sillier, the better! 🎅🧶

🦑🔬 Science in Action at the Middle School! 🔬🦑

Our 8th-grade students dove into hands-on learning during a squid dissection lab in Mrs. Slominski's class! Students practiced basic dissection skills while exploring squid anatomy and making real-world connections to our Salmon in the Classroom (SIC) program.

Squid are an important food source for Chinook salmon, which our students are raising from eggs to fry stage right here at school. Through SIC, students learn about life cycles, ecosystems, conservation, and stewardship—all while connecting science and math to an authentic environmental project.

Experiences like this bring learning to life and help students understand how interconnected our aquatic ecosystems truly are. Great work, 8th graders! 👏🌊🐟
