Fourth Academic Achievement Award for HMSA
Posted February 7th, 2012 by schittenden
Dear Terrific HMSA Community,
This morning HMSA was recognized for receiving the Academic Achievement Award from the Illinois State Board of Education. The Illinois Honor Roll celebrates the accomplishments of Illinois public schools that are providing high quality education for all their students. 438 schools received this award this year out of the over 3900 schools in the state.
State Superintendent Chris Koch presented the awards to our school and Mrs. Hagenberg, Ms. Cardoza, Sam H. and Madison K. were on hand to accept this award on our school’s behalf.
This is the fourth consecutive year we have received this award. Twelve other District 54 schools were recognized as well. On behalf of Schaumburg School District 54 and the entire HMSA staff, we would like to thank you for your support. It is because of your commitment and hard work that we receive these types of acknowledgements. We look forward to receiving another school banner to highlight our achievements. J

Information You Need to Know!
Posted January 23rd, 2012 by schittendenDear Terrific HMSA Community,
I hope that everyone had a great weekend. Here are a few reminders for our community.
Busing: For the safety of our bused students we do not allow students that are scheduled to ride the bus to ride the bus some days of the week and not other days. Students who ride the bus need to have the same riding arrangement every morning or every afternoon.
In the interest of keeping our students safe, District 54 would like to reinforce a few laws and policies concerning smoking, cell phone use and school buses.
No Smoking at Schools: District 54 policy prohibits smoking or the use of tobacco products on district property and in district facilities, regardless of whether students are present or school is in session. Individuals or groups using or renting facilities are also banned from smoking or using tobacco products in District 54 facilities or on District 54 properties.
Cell Phone Use in School Zones: It is unlawful for any person, regardless of age, to use a cell phone at any time while operating a motor vehicle on a roadway in a school speed zone.
School Bus Stop Arm Violations: It is unlawful for a driver to pass a school bus that has stopped to load or unload children when its stop signal arm is extended. Any driver traveling in the same direction as the bus is required to stop his vehicle when the driver is on a road fewer than four lanes of traffic.
Sincerely,
Jake Chung

We want to thank everyone for attending this round of student-led conferences despite the terrible weather that came through yesterday. The HMSA staff truly appreciates the time you took to share in this important part of your student’s school experience.
Please have a great three day weekend and we’ll see everyone next Tuesday!

Mr. Chung’s Updates and Hoover Hawk
Posted January 6th, 2012 by schittendenDear Terrific HMSA Community,
It was an absolutely beautiful January day and the weather for lunchtime recess was great. I threw two interceptions with zero touchdowns during a fourth grade football game at recess. It was not a great quarterback rating and I might need a new offensive coordinator. Is Mike Tice available?
It was great to see everyone back at school and it was great to hear about winter break.
Just a few things to keep in mind this week:
· There is no school for kindergarten students on Thursday, January 12th and Friday, January 13th due to conferences.
· Students in grades 1-6 will be dismissed at 11:40 on Thursday for conferences and we will not have school on Friday.
· Also, there is no school on Monday, January 16 for Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
Have a great weekend!
