Dear HMS Parents, Guardians, and Students,
November is a time of reflection and progress here at Hastings Middle School. As the leaves fall and the mornings turn crisp, it is a reminder of the wonderful energy and resilience our students bring into the building each day. It’s inspiring to see them embrace new challenges and opportunities with curiosity and kindness, whether in the classroom, on stage, or in the gym. As we close out the first quarter, I am proud of the growth our students have shown and grateful for the support of our families in making that possible.
With the cooler weather upon us, we’re leaning into the routines that support students’ success and well-being—staying organized, showing up ready to learn, and taking care of each other. We’re also continuing to live out our Raider Way values, not just as individual students but as a community. As we work through the coming months, let’s continue to support our students in ways that go beyond academics. Whether it’s celebrating the arts, cheering them on in sports, or encouraging their everyday choices, each small moment of connection matters.
We have so much to look forward to this month. From service opportunities to special events, November is a time when our Raider spirit truly shines. Let’s keep building on that momentum together, and thank you for all you do to make HMS a place of growth and community for our students.
Here’s to a great month ahead!
Go Raiders!
Sincerely,
Ryan Wynn
Principal
Hastings Middle School
