Dear HMS Families,
We made it! It is hard to believe that we are nearing the end of the 2020-2021 school year. In some respects it has been the most memorable year of our lives, and in others it has been one of the most challenging. Everyone at HMS, teachers and students alike, have worked diligently to embrace the sweeping changes in which we were presented. Though it was not always pleasant, we persevered and forged ahead. Together, we made it through a year of ups and downs, unexpected firsts, and living in a world of “what if?” The 2020-2021 school year will go down in the history books as one in which we were all stretched outside of our comfort zone. Yet, we have all learned and grown through this season. The quote “it takes a village” has never felt more true. Most sincerely, I thank you enough for your continued flexibility and support.
What is next?
Good luck to our 2021 eighth grade class. Keep reading, pursue your curiosity and dreams, and please come back to visit!
We have migrated to a much needed, new website. Please check it out at highmountschool.com. Very soon we will be sending out information regarding the mobile app.
Registration information for the 2021-2022 school year will be forthcoming. We are excited to open the year in August in-person and see EVERYONE back at school! Stay tuned for more information.
Again, thank you for enduring this year’s adventure with us. Have a wonderful and much deserved summer break. We will see everyone at HMS next August! #hmsfamily
Sincerely,
Dr. Beth A. Horner
Superintendent
