Last week, our NJHS students took a trip to our nation's capital, Washington, D.C.! Dr. Stewart, along with other chaperones, left HHIMS Thursday on a charter bus to make the trek to Washington and had an amazing trip, returning on Sunday.

Please join us in congratulating our Top 3 finalists for Support Staff of the Year (from left to right): Sarah Vinopal (para-pro for our Special Education department), Nancy Blake (social worker), and Ron Lewis (athletic director). We are so grateful to have such amazing staff!

You're looking at your Track and Field CHAMPIONS for both the boys and the girls! Wednesday night at Whale Branch was a success, and we are so proud of our students for coming home with so many medals! This afternoon, we will be doing a championship clap out for our team. #hhims

Tomorrow, April 6th, will be a dress-down day! Students can only do this if they bring in $1; they may wear jeans, athletic wear, t-shirts of choice, etc. They may NOT wear Crocs, slides, or hats.

Come out tonight at 7 and tomorrow at 2 to support our Stingray Stage Company! They're performing Seussical the Musical--it's so good! Friday tickets: osp.osmsinc.com/BeaufortSC/BVM… ; Saturday tickets:osp.osmsinc.com/BeaufortSC/BVM….

Exciting news in the community!

Thank you so much to board game influencer and podcast host Candice Harris (Candice M. Harris) for graciously donating 25 of your age-appropriate, lesser-played board games to our Board Game Club! Coach Myers, who runs the club, is a massive fan of the BGG podcast and website.

CONGRATULATIONS to our Teacher of the Year and Support Staff of the Year! For Teacher of the Year, Mr. Tim Huesing was chosen; for the Support Staff of the Year, Mrs. Luy Mora was chosen. We are so proud of our winners! Both can be seen with their families!

One of our students was surprised with a wonderful homecoming today! Welcome home, and thank you for your service!

This year's Stingray Startup will be on Monday, August 5. Please note that this year, it will be from 9AM to 2PM w/out a break in the schedule. Did you know that you go ahead and beat the line by enrolling online? This is so you can pick up your child's schedule without a delay.

We are bringing back the Stingray Spotlights this year! To celebrate our new staff, we will be doing a "spotlight" moment on them every day so that you can get to know them just a little more. Today, we are starting off with Dr. Meredith Strmac, our new assistant principal!

Check out some of our new staff members below! We are so excited to welcome them into the Stingray family.

And we have two more to show off this week! Welcome to the Stingray family!

Let's take a peek inside a classroom here at HHIMS! First up is Ms. A. Campbell, 6th grade math teacher. Ms. Campbell is teaching her students the Cake Method. This lesson touches on the IB principle of students becoming inquirers.

Game Club is back on this year! We had so many students join the club this morning! Students can join at any time--contact Coach Myers for more information!!

Join us next week for Open House!!

Do you have a child that's interested in working in the theater? If so, this is for you!! Mean Girls, Jr. will be hitting the Stingray Stage this spring, and there's a parent meeting being held on Wednesday, August 28.

Reminder that tomorrow night is Open House!!

Ms. Sheldon's classes are learning about chemical reactions today through making ice cream!! This is an amazing way to learn about the process while also being IB learners and developing their natural curiosity.
