Here are a few tips to get you back into a school routine!


School will resume for Marion County students tomorrow, August 9th, and motorists will be sharing the road with school buses once again. Please allow additional time in your daily commute to accommodate more traffic, including buses, on the roadways. Our Transportation Department operates with our children’s safety as its number one priority. Please help them keep our children safe by keeping a watchful eye for school buses and being mindful of the law which pertains to them.




HMS Strong! These kiddos are talented, passionate young performers and we couldn't be more proud of them. Break a leg, you guys! 🐾❤️
From Red Mountain Theatre:
Say hi to this week's Youth Ensemble for Joseph, in partnership with Hamilton Middle School! Hamilton, AL is actually closer to Tupelo than Birmingham, so these singers win the awards for dedication and miles traveled. So glad to have you here on stage with us through Sunday's matinee!
JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT | Now through August 13
Tickets available at https://www.redmountaintheatre.org/joseph-2023/


Tomorrow!!!


Just a reminder that all students entering 6th grade are required to have an up-to-date immunization record on file. Sixth grade students will need the TDaP booster. Please call your physician, health department, or pharmacy for assistance.


Great news for the coming school year!!! Marion County Schools will participate in the Community Eligibility Program. The CEP program is a PILOT program for the 23-24 school year that allows all enrolled students to eat breakfast and lunch at no cost!
CEP is based on the overall economic status of our regional area. NO free or reduced applications will be needed from parents this school year. No action is required by parents for students to eat free. Please note the first complete meal is free, however extra plates or items must be purchased. All visiting children, adults, and employees will be required to pay for meals. www.paypams.com is still available for anyone that wishes to add money to his or her child(ren)'s accounts. This institution is an equal opportunity provider.


Summer picture schedule


Math Camp time is here! HMS will be hosting a Math Camp for all HMS students entering the 6th grade. Dates are June 5-8; June 12-15; June 19-22; and June 26-27 from 7:45 to 12:15 in the Annex. Transportation will not be provided. The purpose of camp is to provide intensive math instruction for those who struggled in math this year. This will give students the opportunity to fill in the "gaps" before school starts in the fall. Call (205)921-7030 if you have questions. See you on Monday!


Final Report Cards are ready! They can be picked in the foyer of the HMS Office. Our Summer hours are Monday through Thursday, 7:00 to 4:30. Have a great break!

Seventh Grade Theatre's production of One Stoplight Town was great! All of the kiddos did a fabulous job and it was obvious how much they have all learned and grown this year.
