Welcome to the 2020–2021 school year!
We know this year is different. Things have changed, and as parents, we just don't know what changes are in store for us and our kids. Because of that, we want to be sure that you can have a place where your questions about our PTO and how you can be involved can be answered. Look around our site, see what it has to offer. Hopefully, you will find that there's a place for anyone and everyone to be involved. Come join in the fun!

From Your PTO. . .
HMS Families,
One of the easiest ways for you to support our students and teachers is to join the PTO and make a donation to the Family Donation Drive. As a PTO member you will receive an HMS magnet and access to the online family directory. Members also will receive the weekly PTO newsletter. Check out the most recent edition of the newsletter below. This is a great resource to help keep you in the loop.
While you are joining the PTO, you can also make a donation to this year's Family Donation Drive. 100% of the funds raised in the Family Donation Drive go straight to HMS. This year's proceeds will help fund the HMS house system, technology and 21st century classroom redesign. Donors will receive a mask lanyard while supplies last.
TO JOIN AND MAKE A DONATION, PLEASE CLICK HERE. If you are new to Membership Toolkit, you will need to create an account. If you already have a Membership Toolkit account, you will need to update your account information (including updating your student's homeroom teacher). You can then click on "Join PTO" and complete the process.
Thank you for helping support our students and teachers!

The HMS PTO
Each year, parents are offered the opportunity to show their appreciation to our faculty and staff at HMS by purchasing treats from Nothing Bundt Cakes. We are grateful for such generous parents and are excited to be able to report that all of our faculty and staff have been gifted a certificate from Nothing Bundt Cakes! Check back in the fall of the 2021–2022 school year to participate again! Thank you, HMS parents!
