Hocker Grove MS

The annual HG Student Council Day of Service took place on Friday, meeting with Shawnee Mission North StuCo and School Board member Mario Garcia, delivering neighborly thank you notes to our community businesses, and playing Bingo with our neighbors at Sharon Lane Nursing Home.

What a great success story. Thank you for the shout out and your support in helping students find success @OurCornerstones

What a night for the kickoff of Hocker Grove Girls Soccer. A1 and A2 both took home wins to start their seasons at 1-0. Next game up, at Indian Woods on Monday at 5pm. This is a super fun group to watch out on the pitch.

Rock Chalk, @Nieman512 !

Thank you @theSMSD Food Service Nutritionist Jill Willett, Director Grace Liss, and Supervisor Heidi Winkelmolen for meeting with Hocker Grove Student Council leadership to seek out student feedback on menus for next year. We have a spice station pilot coming to HG as a result.

We showed our spirit this week in support of the Chiefs from 80’s day to Tacky Vegas Tourists and moon walk competitions at lunch. Go Chiefs!!!

Congratulations to all of the students who competed in the Middle School Solo and Ensemble Festival over the weekend. Hocker Grove music students represented well!

The kindness cart was rolling down the Hocker hallways for Kindness Week last week. Thank you to all the families who donated sweet and healthy treats. Your kindness was on full display.

It’s Kindness Week Eagles!! Let’s celebrate!

It was a great evening for welcoming future eagles and their families to Hocker Grove on Thursday. Thank you all for braving the weather. We can’t wait to see what you’ll accomplish!

Thanks to @sm_north_hs for hosting our 8th grade students and families tonight for Northern Exposure. Great opportunity to meet new faces and learn about all that North has to offer. #eaglesxbison
