The Remarkable Red Hawk program recognizes students, staff, and teachers who demonstrate excellence in a number of ways at HMS. At the end of each month, one student from the fifth and sixth grades and one student from the seventh and eighth grades are randomly selected from all nominations during that month from students, teachers, and staff. Awardees receive a gift card sponsored by Citizens State Bank & Trust and Morrill & Janes Bank, a certificate of excellence, and a Remarkable Red Hawk t-shirt.
We are SO proud of all our Remarkable Red Hawk nominees! Their many accomplishments and achievements do not go unnoticed!
