Hughes MS Updates


Principal's Message

Langston Hughes parents and students,

Congratulations to our students who made the 3rd quarter Honor Roll! We are especially proud of our students who achieved academic excellence during this unprecedented time. We had 210 students on the All A Honor Roll and 319 students on the A/B Honor Roll.  This has been a time of perseverance. We celebrate our students who have shown academic determination and we celebrate our teachers and parents or guardians who have supported students in this incredible achievement.

Sincerely,

Aimée Monticchio

Principal

ACT (Acknowledge, Care, and Tell an Adult)

In our virtual PE classes, our clinical support team presented a short lesson to remind our students about how to recognize signs of depression and how to get help. Students were educated about the signs and symptoms of depression and what to do if they have concerns about themselves or a peer – acknowledge the feelings, show that they care and are concerned, and tell a trusted adult as soon as possible. Our clinical team is here to support our students and families. Below is the contact information for our clinical team members.
