April 15 - April 19

I am so proud of our students for their hard work on the ERBs and thankful to our community for their support and flexibility. It’s a long, tiring week, but now it is over!

Our virtue this month is curiosity. Our assembly earlier this month was brief, but students were reminded that we need to be curious every day! Not only about school, but about the entire world around us. Curiosity leads to inquiry. Inquiry leads to learning. Learning leads to being greater problem-solvers and citizens of the world!

In addition to ERBs, this month is filled with field trips. Our students have already been to the Children’s Museum in Pooler (3rd), the Tybee Aquarium (PK), and the Jacksonville Zoo (2). Over the next few weeks, our students will continue their adventures! First grade will go to Oatland Island. Kindergarten will go to the Strawberry Farm, 4th Grade will have their annual overnight trip to Tybee and our 5th grade will head on their 3-day trip to Jekyll! Thank you to all of our parent volunteers who are chaperoning and driving for these fabulous adventures!

Come out and support HDS Theater!

Boys golf wins SPAL Golf Championship (co champions) at Southbridge Golf course. Boys were led by Carson Hayes, Beau Geriner, Jordan Hess, Bay Borak, Creighton Jue, and Hudson Mobley. The Girls golf team finished 2nd! They were led by Couper Howard, Caroline Seibert, and Jillian Schmid.

Baseball finishes the regular season 5-1 with a tough loss to SCPS. HDS will be the second seed heading into the SPAL Tournament, which will be bumped back due to rain outs on April 11th.
