Chickasaw County School District - Learners Today. Leaders Tomorrow.

At HUES, 5th graders got to listen to Mr. Peddric, aka. "JustCat" Gathings speak. He spoke about a lot of things, but the focus was on respect, choices, kindness, and motivation! Students were able to be inspired by one of the best. This time of the year can be trying, but we know all things can be possible. Thank you, Mr. Gathings, for coming today to speak to our students. They loved it and they will remember the words you said.

HUES Jr. Beta members collected and delivered over 1,500 canned food items to the Parkway Baptist Church Food Pantry today. Students took the lead in gathering, sorting, and transporting every donation. We hope their efforts make a meaningful impact on families in our community this holiday season. This project is a wonderful example of how Jr. Beta students truly "lead by serving others." They continue to show that when we lead by serving others, we can make a lasting difference in our community.

Mrs. Randle, our school counselor, is teaching students at HUES all about being punctual and showing up to school each day during classroom guidance time this week. With that being our November focus, our students are being made more aware of how important it is to be on time to things and not missing school. Missing two days of school a month is equal to 1 month of lost instruction! It is always a great day to be a topper.

HUES has the best PTO! Thank you for feeding our staff breakfast this morning. It was a great way to get the day started! A big shout out to Mollie Cardwell and Tara Kilgore for getting up early and being at school helping set this up for our teachers!
