We recognize students and their achievements at our monthly Town Meetings and want to share these celebrations with you too.
Cougar Spotlight for February
The Cougar Spotlight is a new recognition for students who are showing excellence in the classroom. Each month teachers will nominate students and each student will be visited by Dr. Olsen to talk about his/her work. Please come visit our main office to see our Cougar Spotlight bulletin board filled with examples of students’ excellence. The following students were recognized for February: Grade 8: Isabel Berardino, Kaleigh Bodak, Nolan Braren, Serena Doyle, Carey Harwood, Liam Hoddinott, Grace McKenzie, Addie Packtor, Callen Powers, Grace Quilliam, Allie Rafferty, Sophia Schoen-Newsome, Audra Yazmer, and Payton Yazmer.
In March, the Cougar Spotlight will feature fifth grade students.
Cougar Core Value Award Winners
Our Cougar Core Value Awards are given to students who exemplify one or more of our Cougar Core Values: Respect, Responsibility, Acceptance, Kindness, and Perseverance. These Core Values were developed and accepted by HKMS students, parents, faculty, and staff in 2016, and we recognize students each month. We appreciate these students’ commitment to upholding our core values and being role models at HKMS.
