H-BC Families:
We are running smoothly at H-BC Elementary School! It has been such a great first week seeing all of our students back with us! I am so excited to see what the year has in store for us!
ACTION NEEDED: It is important that families, if you haven’t done so already, fill out the free and reduced lunch applications otherwise known as “Application for Educational Benefits”. Even with free meals for all students, this application is needed. Registration link found here: https://tinyurl.com/y5yz9soj
Back to school online registration--Thanks to all the parents and families that completed their student online registration through JMC. It is an easy way for the school to collect the necessary information for school enrollment. If you have not yet completed registration for your student please do so as soon as possible. Log into www.hbc.onlinejmc.com. If you receive a message from the school stating all or a portion of your students registration is incomplete, please act promptly! Call the office with questions 507-673-2541
