Please be aware that a new safety plan has been put into place by the Harrisburg School District. If the office staff is unfamiliar with the individual who is visiting or signing out a student, they will need to show identification. If parents arrange for someone other than themselves to pick up their student, please make them aware of our policy and inform the office of whom will be coming. Thank you.
An important reminder during this time of year. Be safe out there, Tigers!

Go to www.teespring.com/lilyshields and order from lots of colors and sizes. Please join us in supporting the family in this fundraiser where 100% of money raised will go to the Shields family for lodging, gas, meals, and medical expenses. Thank you in advanced for supporting a fellow Tiger!

If you've been to our commons lately, you've noticed our little Christmas tree set up. We're not Hobby Lobby and jumping ahead with decor, we're promoting the Giving Tree! There are "ornaments" with different gift card suggestions. We encourage students, parents, and staff to take an "ornament", purchase the gift card, and return both to the office. These gift cards will be given to families throughout the district who want to give their family a better Christmas than they can financially do themselves. Thank you in advance for giving to this cause.
If you need assistance in this area, please fill out the GivingTreeLetter found here http://harrisburgdistrict41-2.org/o/north-middle-school/browse/36743 and return to the office.
Don't miss this! HNMS Dance Friday, October 26 at 6:00-8:00 PM. Cost is $5. Concessions available including pizza!
