A big Thank You to our staff, parents, and community for helping lift Hockinson's schools and students to new heights this school year!
---
The HSD motto and mission remains unchanged: Preparing all students for lifelong success. However, starting with the 2022-23 school year, we launched Upward Together, a three-part initiative to increase alignment, expectations, and student learning and achievement. Thanks to your support, we're heading in the right direction: Upward!
Thank you for helping lift Hockinson's students and schools to new heights this school year! We wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday.
