Mustangs & Bucks: A Joint Stampede
November 2026 Parent Newsletter
Dear PVMS and HMS Families,
Welcome to November! Great things are happening across our campus academically and socially, and school pride is in full swing as we transition into winter sports, UIL One-Act Play, and winter concert preparations.
Our students are currently preparing for their upcoming Student-Led Conferences, and they can't wait to share their growth and learning with you. Please be sure to sign up for your child’s conference time soon!
With only 14 instructional days in November, every day counts. To celebrate strong commitment, students who achieve perfect attendance during the month of November will get to join us for a fun Block Party on November 19th before we head into Thanksgiving break.
I am so incredibly proud of what we have already accomplished together and look forward to our continued success. We have so much to be thankful for here at PVMS and HMS!
Warm regards,
PVMS / HMS Administration

NO BADGE, NO RIDE!
Beginning September 1, 2026 students cannot board their bus without an ID. IDs can be purchased on campus for $2, Lanyards are sold separately. If your child is cashless you can log on to School Cash purchase one before 12:30PM and we will deliver the new ID to the student before dismissal.
If you are not able to do so, please make arrangments to pick up your child in the car rider line beginning at 2:25pm.
Student Led Conferences!
We are off to a great start preparing our students for their upcoming Student-Led Conference in November! This conference is a wonderful opportunity for your child to share highlights from their school experience with you.
Students begin by reflecting on where they are now and setting goals for where they’d like this year to take them. From there, they work toward those goals while collecting evidence of their progress along the way.
In November, your child will have the opportunity to present their growth and achievements to you showcasing not only what they’ve learned, but also how they continue to grow as learners and leaders.
We are excited for you to see all the amazing things your child is accomplishing!
