September Is Attendance Awareness Month
As we continue through Attendance Awareness Month, we want to remind families that every school day matters.
Consistent attendance helps students remain connected to classroom instruction, maintain academic progress, and build positive relationships with teachers and classmates. Please continue making every effort to have students at school, on time, and ready to learn each day.
Car Line and Arrival Reminders
Students may enter the school beginning at 7:00 AM each morning. Traffic is typically very light at this time, so families who are able to arrive earlier are encouraged to take advantage of this option.
Please remain in the designated car line, follow staff directions, and pull forward as far as possible before allowing students to exit or enter the vehicle. Students should always enter and exit from the passenger side and should never walk between moving vehicles.
Once the morning car line has concluded, students arriving after 8:00 AM must be checked in through the front office by a parent or guardian.
Thank you for helping us keep arrival and dismissal safe and efficient.
Thank You for Your Support
We appreciate the tremendous support of our HCMS families. Your patience, communication, and partnership play an important role in helping us provide a safe, positive, and successful school experience for every student.
We encourage our families to come out and support our student-athletes, cheerleaders, performers, and coaches this week. We are proud of the hard work, sportsmanship, and commitment our Bulls demonstrate both in the classroom and through extracurricular activities.
We look forward to another great week at Hampton Cove Middle School!
With Bull Pride,
Kris Martinez, Principal
Stephanie Lett, Assistant Principal
Susan Moore, Assistant Principal
