HCSS Summer College Readiness Program
| 
Dear parent/guardians,
We are approaching the end of another successful school year at HCSS. I am very happy to announce that HCSS has reached its goal of %100 of four-year college acceptance in our first graduating year. All senior students were offered an admission from a four-year college or university. In order for us to maintain our success, your cooperation is extremely important.

It's not just family thanking moms on Mother's Day, teachers are too. Dorothy Weber's kids go to Hampden Charter School of Science.
She's one of 300 parents who received a bouquet of flowers as a thank you. “It's nice to know that the teachers are taking time out of their days because I'm sure they have mothers and wives who could also be using them but their not and they're sharing it with us which is very special,” said Dorothy Weber.
It's the school's philosophy to keep parents involved and in the loop.
Uconn Trip
|
The Sophomore Class went on a college trip Wednesday to visit UConn. Students took an interactive tour of the campus and were able to ask questions about the school to current college students. The students also shared a lunch in the Student Union and ate among other college students who were frantically cramming for finals! Overall, the sophomores were impressed by the campus and many are interested in the school.
8th Grade Semi-Formal Dance

Thank you to the Student Council for hosting the 8th Grade Semi-Formal dance on the Thursday night. Eighth graders were invited to the American Legion in Granby to celebrate the end of their year with a dinner together and dancing. Students were excited to dress up and celebrate the end of their middle school years together. Thank you to Ms.Kennedy, Bob Lafleur, and the administration for all their help in preparing this big night!
Wolves Banquet

Congratulations to all the winter student athletes. The athletics department hosted a banquet in the gym where students, families, and staff members shared a dinner and ceremony to honor the girls and boys basketball team, the wrestling team, and the cheerleaders. Thank you to Coach Trudeau for putting it together and thank you to all the families and students for supporting our program!
Abbas T. Overcomes Obstacles for Championship
|
Imagine moving to a foreign country, not knowing the native language, yet finding a way to excel and become the outright best at something. Such is the case for one local high school wrestler, and there is a good chance we will be hearing more about him for years to come. Abbas Tamaradze looks and sounds impressive on the wrestling mat.
3rd Quarter Academic Awards Ceremony

Congratulations to all of the students who were recognized in our 3rd quarter academic awards ceremony! All students with honor roll or high honor roll for second quarter received a certificate and were entered into a drawing for a gift card and a Kindle. Also, the top three most improved and the top three scoring students of the Math and Science practice MCAS were recognized with a tee shirt, certificate, and will have a pizza party with the HCSS administration. Keep up all the great work! Let's top 4th quarter with even more honor students.
