HMK's ATTENDANCE INITIATIVE
We started the year out very strong, meeting and surpassing our 93% average monthly attendance. However, in December we began to lose momentum. We realize that flu season and holidays can affect attendance, but as we enter March we can refocus and ensure that students attend regularly.
Regular attendance means missing less than two days a month. We are past the half way mark of the school year, and missing anything more than 8 days for the remainder of the year can adversely affects your studentβs academics and social and behavioral growth. If students arenβt here, we canβt teach them. So! Everyday Counts here at HMK!
Letβs meet our 93% attendance goal. To add a little bit of excitement to this goal, when classrooms meet our goal, they will be given temporary tattoos. Tattoos will be earned, February, March, April and into May. Classrooms that earn their temporary tattoos can βTat A Teacher!β
Please join us on our campaign to Make Everyday Count at HMK !

JOIN OUR TEAM!
We are ALWAYS looking for Substitute Teachers!
We are currently working to recruit and hire more substitute teachers, and we would love your help. If you or someone you know is interested in working with students, enjoys a flexible schedule, and wants to make a positive impact in our school community, this is a great opportunity. Training and support are provided, and substitutes play a vital role in keeping our school running smoothly.
How you can help:
- Consider applying to be a substitute teacher yourself.
- Share this opportunity with family, friends, neighbors, or community members who may be a good fit.
- Contact our school office for more information about how to apply or direct interested individuals to the districtβs substitute application page [CLICK HERE].
Thank you for your continued partnership in supporting our students. Together, we can ensure that every classroom has the support it needs every day.
