HMS is holding a canned food drive to collect food for a local food bank right here in the Harriman community.
The food drive starts tomorrow, Monday, November 7, 2022, and it will run through November 30, 2022.
Please see the flyer for details.
Also, please remember to only send in non-perishable food items that are not expired.
We kicked off our annual Turkey Trot PTO fundraiser yesterday with the students!
Be on the lookout for your favorite HMS students and please consider sponsoring them for this walk-a-thon fundraiser.
The best part about our Turkey Trot is that the funds you donate will 100% BENEFIT the STUDENTS of HMS.
One of the biggest events of the year, the HMS Winter Ball, is sponsored by our PTO. The funds from Turkey Trot help to offset the cost of the food, decorations, venue, DJ, etc., to make the tickets affordable to our students.
Another way our PTO supports our students is by providing many prizes for our Renaissance Program each semester.
The PTO also often helps out with other projects around our school.
They would not be able to support our students in such a fantastic manner without your generous support!
We thank you for helping out our kiddos!
Students will be collecting money up until the walk-a-thon, which is on Tuesday, November 22, 2022.
Please see the attached flyer.
Come join us on Tuesday, November 1st, 2022, for an information session hosted by the Roane County Anti-Drug Coalition!
Please see the attached flyer for details!

Students should be bringing home their VERY OWN COPY of the newsletter, TODAY!!! Just look for the bright orange paper in their hands, folders, or backpacks!
Come join us as we celebrate our Renaissance Students!
Our Renaissance Program recognizes and awards academic achievement from the previous semester. Our first program of the year will recognize our 7th and 8th graders who earned a 3.0 or higher GPA during the spring semester of last school year!
Check out the attached images for this month's newsletter, which will be coming home TODAY (September 12, 2022).
Also, today launches our World's Finest Chocolate fundraiser for our school! Look for your students to come home with a coral-colored sheet of paper that is a permission slip for participating in the fundraiser. Please send these back to school ASAP, indicating your student's participation in the fundraiser.
We just wanted to send out a reminder about testing at HMS.
We often have questions from parents about students "never bringing home homework." Students should have a form of homework at least every night from Monday night through Thursday night.
Every week, we follow the attached testing schedule, school wide. So for every grade level, students are assessing four days per week (Tuesday through Friday). Your student should be bringing home daily the notes and information to study for the test they will have the following day.
We encourage and remind our students every day to take what they need home with them to study so they will not be on the class's MASH list, requiring a remediation session and retesting . Help support your student by reinforcing this at home and making sure they have appropriate study time!!
It’s every middle schooler’s favorite day!!
Midterms are going home today (Tuesday, September 6, 2022).
Make sure to ask your student for his or her midterm report!!
HHS may be celebrating Homecoming this week, but IN TWO WEEKS, it will be OUR turn!!!

School picture day is coming up THIS Thursday, September 1, 2022.
Pictures are pre-paid, and envelopes with information will be sent home today (Monday, August 29, 2022).
Students are not required to purchase pictures, but we do want to take everyone’s picture, as these are what will be used for the individual student portraits in the yearbook!
Come dressed to impress with your hair “just-so” and be ready for picture day on Thursday!!
