The staff at Hughes would like to extend a "BIG" thank you to our community members that donated gift cards; these will definitely make the holidays brighter for those less fortunate.


 

Dear Hughes Parents, Guardians, and Students

We enjoyed beautiful holiday music together in our Winter Assembly today.  It was a spirited way to kick off our holiday break.  Thank you to our chorus, orchestra and bands; as well as our directors, Jordanna Bergman, Abbie Dausen and Sarah Milhoan for entertaining us.  We wish the whole community a very happy holiday season of love and joy.
