The Cubs were full of school spirit and house pride during Hueytown Intermediate School’s sorting day! Students were divided into six houses that form one big HIS Family, with each house representing positive values and characteristics. As the school year goes on, these students will earn points for academic achievements and exemplary character, helping create a positive culture within their house and the entire school! 👏🐾 We can’t wait to see these houses collect points and spread positivity!

BACK TO SCHOOL REMINDERS:
1. How is your child getting home tomorrow?
2. If they ride a bus, do they know the bus number and the driver's name?
3. Students being dropped off by car must drop off in the car line, not from the parking lot.
3. Parents may not enter the building. Staff will be on hand to help students with supplies (you don't have to send all of the supplies at one time).

It is going to be a GREAT year at HIS!
