The Hive

Dear HMS Families,

We made it! We had so much fun with the kids this week for spirit week and our special treats to start the day. We feel incredibly lucky to be able to get to work with your kids every day. We have the best kids! We wouldn't be able to do what we do without all of you. Thank you for all of your support, kindness, and grace that you have given us. We appreciate all of you more than we can express. Thank you!

We hope you all have a wonderful winter break!

With Kindness,

Bess & Sid

As we close 2025, I want to send a huge thank you to all of our athletes, coaches, and families for all of your support of HMS athletics. We look forward to an even better year in 2026!

Upcoming Sports Registration - Boys Basketball 1/26/26

Boys basketball registration is currently open and tryouts will begin January 26th. Please make sure that your athlete has a current physical on file, and all forms are signed through FinalForms prior to the first day of tryouts.

Boys Basketball is open to 7th and 8th grade students. We will have 3 teams and not all athletes who try out will make a team.

The Hockinson PWT is excited to continue supporting the students and staff at Hockinson Middle School this year! In partnership with school administration, we are raising funds for two important initiatives: Staff Appreciation activities HMS Staff Hospitality and new Recess Equipment HMS Recess Equipment.

• Our fundraising goal for staff hospitality this year is $2,500.
• Our fundraising goal for recess equipment this year is $300.

Your support makes a big difference in creating a positive, engaging environment for our students and showing appreciation for our hardworking staff. We would love your help in contributing to these important fundraisers, thank you for being part of our community!
