Lost and Found Website Updated
We have implemented a new procedure in an attempt to keep the Lost and Found area better organized.   http://hmslaf.blogspot.com/   Please note the following:

  1. When “lost” items are identified, the item will be hung on a hook in the middle of the office stairwell.  This is the first location students should check when trying to locate an item.
  2. Every 3 weeks, the items will be taken down, photographed, and then placed on the Lost/Found website.
  3. Once the items are posted on the website, they will be moved to the new Lost and Found bin that is located in the main entrance to Central/Middle (large red bin marked Lost and Found—no need to enter the main office area)
  4. Once items make it into the red Lost and Found bin, they will remain there for approximately 2 weeks.  All unclaimed items that remain will be donated to a local charity.

Presenters wanted for 8th Grade Career Day
On June 7th the Rotary Club of Haddonfield is coordinating Career Day at HMS and we would love it if you could donate some time to talk to the students about your career and the path that led to you being where you are today.

We would be delighted if you could join us for the whole day but will be happy if you can help with either a morning or afternoon session.  Also, let us know if you know of someone else who would be interested in speaking with the students.

Please contact Adam Sangillo at asangillo@janney.com or at 856-310-2008 if you are available and can help. Thank you – The Rotary Club of Haddonfield
