Happy New Year!

Hubbardston Center School staff wishes all HCS families a very happy, healthy 2025! As we continue working together to ensure student growth, academically, socially, and emotionally, please remember that we are partners in this journey and want to work closely. Reach out with questions, concerns, or positive thoughts at any time!

December All School Meeting

During our December All School Meeting, students who earned a Big Three Victory, for being safe, responsible, and/or respectful were recognized, along with students who participated in the Comet Club. Additionally, Mr. Kelly, our terrific Music teacher, led students and staff in a Sing Along. It was a fun, festive way to end the 2024 school-year together.

Comet Club

As of December, we have approximately 10% of HCS students participating in the Comet Club. (Congratulations to those students!) Just before the holiday, all HCS students were challenged to join, if they have not already, so that the percentage of participation grows each month, which should correlate to academic growth, as well!
