On Wednesday, October 7, high school students traveled to Northwestern College for the War Eagle Conference Leadership Summit.
They spent the day connecting with peers from other schools and diving into the Champions of Character pillars: Integrity, Respect, Responsibility, Sportsmanship, and Servant Leadership.
The event encouraged students to lead by example and put these values into action in their classrooms, on their teams, and throughout their communities.

At HMS High School, our Students of the Month embody what it means to Show Up. Step Up. Soar! by demonstrating dedication, leadership, and a positive example for their peers. Alongside them, students have also voted to recognize a staff member who consistently models these same values throughout every week of the school year. Congratulations to our September recipients!
