HMS Families,


On behalf of our faculty and staff, I would like to welcome you to the 2024 - 25 academic year. I am excited about having the students breathe life back into HMS after a relaxing summer!

8th Grade Courses

All our 8th grade students will be taking Earth Space Science and College and Careers during the academic day. These two course (along with Algebra 1) are HS credit bearing courses. The final semester grades will be a part of the high school transcript, will count towards high school GPA and class rank, along with all other HS graduation requirements. Families at the end of the year will have the opportunity to indicate they do not want one or all of the courses not to count toward their high school transcript, will count towards high school GPA and class rank, along with all other HS graduation requirements.


Per the MSD of Boone Township handbook:

In order to earn high school credit in middle school, the student must have a grade of C- or higher in the class each semester. The grade from this class will count in the student’s high school GPA, and will be used in determining class rank throughout the student’s high school career. Students earning less than a C- will have to retake the class.

Universal Free Breakfast

We are excited to announce that we will be offering ALL student a free universal breakfast for the 2024 - 2025 school year. Eating breakfast is crucial for students' educational success and well-being. Benefits include improved academic performance, better attendance and punctuality, stronger concentration/memory, positive behavior and mood, and even higher graduation rates. Research consistently shows that students who eat breakfast regularly perform better in school, maintain better health, and exhibit more positive behavior, underscoring the importance of starting the day with a nutritious meal. Breakfast for MS students will be served from 7:25 am until 7:35 am and students will be expected to be in class by 7:40 am. The beginning time for breakfast is subject to change depending on the number of students who opt for the universal free breakfast.

MSD of Boone Township Attendance Policy

In accordance with Indiana Code 20 - 33 - 2 - 14, which states "The governing body of each school corporation shall have a policy outlining the conditions for excused and unexcused absences. The policy must include the groups for excused absences. Any absence that results in a person not attending at least one hundred eight (180) days in a school year must be in accordance with the governing body's policy to qualify as an excused absence", the MSD of Boone Township has written and will enforce the following policy regarding attendance starting with the 2024 - 25 academic year.

6th Grade Band Information

From Mr. Lee, our MS band teacher:


Parents,

This is just a reminder that you should have made arrangements for your child to have a band instrument for the start of the school year. If you have already ordered an instrument from Quinlan and Fabish, those instruments will be delivered to the middle school prior to the first day of school. If you have not made arrangements for an instrument yet, you can call Quinlan and Fabish at 219-462-5086 and they can take your information over the phone or you can register online at www.qandf.com. If you would rather visit the store they are located in Valparaiso at 2601 Cumberland Drive. If your child has their own instrument, they should bring it on the first day of school. This is going to be a great year and I am excited about this year's beginning band! If you have any questions, please reach out to Mr. Lee at the email address below.

Email: leed@hebronschools.k12.in.us

Chromebook Insurance

The student and/or the student’s parent/guardian shall be responsible for compensating the school district for any losses, costs, or damages to the Chromebook. The student and/or the student's parent/guardian is liable for replacement costs resulting from intentional damage and/ or neglect as outlined in this document.


However, the parent/ guardian of the student may choose to purchase insurance for the device. This insurance policy covers accidental damage to the device and charger. The insurance is through Student Device Coverage and the cost for insurance is $27. This coverage is for the school year, with no deductible per claim. All claims will be filed through each school. The portal is now open and available until September 1, 2024. After that, insurance will not be able to be purchased for this academic year.

Dress Code

Please be reminded of the MSD of Boone Township student dress code. The policy can be found on pages 55 and 56 in the Universal Student Handbook. I’ve also attached our policy below:


Parents/guardians must ensure that students come to school properly groomed and dressed. Proper attire is defined as clothing that is clean, modest, which does not create a health or safety hazard, and which is not distracting or demeaning to other students in the classroom.


School attire should conform to the following guidelines that are not intended to be all-inclusive. The administration reserves the right to use its discretion in determining the type of clothing appropriate for the school setting.


Students are to abide by the following:

• All students must wear soled shoes at all times. Elementary students are not allowed to wear high heels.

• Any clothing exposing the torso, such as ripped shirts, tops that are torn or meant to expose bare midriffs, barebacks, low necklines, as well as those that are strapless and see-through, are not permitted. Pants, skirts, and shorts must completely cover undergarments.

• Shorts and skirts must be long enough to enable stair-climbing, sitting, and participating in any school activity without the possibility of undergarment exposure.

• Clothing with unacceptable writing or pictures will not be allowed. This includes anything advertising drugs, tobacco, alcohol, vulgarities, nudity, sex, weapons, criminal activity, gang activity, or is contrary to the school’s mission.

• No wearing of hats or coats in the building without prior administrative permission. Hoodies are not to be worn on the head. No outerwear is allowed in the classroom unless extenuating circumstances dictate.

• Students are not to wear objects that could be used as weapons such as chains etc.

Hawk Trip Criteria

Teachers at Hebron Middle School are trying to encourage our students to become actively involved in the entire life of the school and take advantage of the programs offered here at the middle school.


The middle school staff has adopted and slightly modified a program that incorporates five areas we want to emphasize as making a more complete or successful student: scholarship, citizenship, attendance, extracurricular activities, and service.


  • Scholarship – Students get a point for having no grade below a C- each grading period. A student is automatically out if they earn 2 or more F’s for the quarter.
  • Attendance – Perfect or near-perfect attendance (maximum of 2 absences per grading period or 2 tardies). Attendance is determined by school records and can be reviewed by school administration. A student is automatically out if they miss 6 or more days.
  • Citizenship – Students will automatically earn their citizenship points unless they have received more than 1 one-hour detention. If a student earns a two-hour detention, they do not earn the citizenship point. A student is automatically out if they are suspended or expelled during the quarter the Hawk Trip is for.
  • Extracurricular Activities – This category includes teams, clubs, and academic competitions at Hebron Middle School. ONLY school-sanctioned activities count for this program (exceptions will be allowed for exceptional circumstances granted by the team-time teacher). You are only allowed one point total, regardless of the number of activities you are involved in during a grading period
  • Service -- REPLACEMENT POINT (as long as a student isn’t automatically out and they earn a service hour, they can replace the service hour with not earning a point for grades, attendance, citizenship, or extracurricular activity) -- this allows students to earn their way back into the Hawk Trip. If a student completes a community service activity and return a signed paper from the event organizer/individual for whom the service was completed, this will allow the student a replacement point for that quarter's Hawk Trip. This point may need to be confirmed by the staff.


The middle school staff has end-of-the-quarter activities and this year we’d like to make these activities extra special, one which our students earn. Students will have the opportunity to participate in all areas each grading period and will earn points in each category. Team Time teachers will use the form found on the back to tally points each grading period. If you have any questions, please talk with your child's Team Time teacher.

zoom_out_map

Extracurricular Grade Policy

Students who participate in extracurricular events (sports or clubs) must be in good standing. Those who participate in clubs or sports at Hebron Middle School will be subject to a grade check every two weeks, starting with midterms, two weeks after midterms, and at the end of the grading period. Students who have a failing grade will immediately become ineligible for the club/sport they’re participating in until the next grade check. This also applies to the end of each grading period. Students who have two or more failing grades at the end of a grading period will be ineligible for the next 9-week grading period.


Coaches/club supervisors reserve the right to remove athletes from practice and contests if their academic progress is unsatisfactory. Additionally, athletes/club members may be removed from a team/club due to poor academic performance.


Every student-athlete, manager, trainer, or support group member is subject to this rule. Those affected may attend practices during the period of ineligibility at the coach’s discretion.

NWI Buddy Bags

We will be continuing (the first delivery is tentatively planned for the week of September 9) our partnership with NWI No Child Hungry, which is a local, non-profit organization dedicated to fighting hunger in Northwest Indiana. This program, called Buddy Bags, provides enough food for a weekend's worth of meals. Buddy Bags are free of charge and available to any student enrolled at the MSD of Boone Township that may need them. At the end of each week (normally placed in their locker on Thursday after school hours), your student will receive a bag of non-perishable, single-serve, child-friendly food to bring home. The food bags will be handed out discreetly and in a caring manner. Your participation is anonymous to our organization. Only your child’s school will have your information.


We have made some changes to the menu. NWI No Child Hungry is happy to announce that we will have a rotating 4-week menu so that students can have a variety of meal items and not just the same foods every week.


If you are in need of this program, please fill out the Google Form that is linked below.
