Congratulations to the HMS High School November Students of the Month! One student is selected from each grade after being nominated by High School staff members. Students are nominated for many different reasons. Criteria can include working to the best of the student's ability, being a good role model for other students, doing well academically, having positive character, or simply having a positive attitude in class. Congratulations to these students! We are proud of their efforts and accomplishments!! Thank you to the Stoplight Lounge for your sponsorship.
