Hesperia Community Schools - Achieving Excellence Together

Mrs. Vicki Hawes is the Elementary Teacher of the Year! Mrs. Hawes is a remarkable colleague and an inspirational teacher for her students. Her unwavering dedication, contagious smile, and positive attitude create a nurturing environment that fosters learning and growth. She has gone above and beyond by enrolling the building in programs needed and securing funds that are necessary through grants. As the technology teacher, she makes an indelible impact on our students in kindergarten through fourth grade! Congratulations Vicki on a job well done!

The Periodic Table of Elements has many trends, and students in Mrs. Sherburn's Chemical Science class explored this concept in a fun and creative way by building 'Periodic Tables of Cereal.' Using characteristics like brand, color, shape, calories, sugar, and fiber content, they organized cereals to mimic the structure and patterns found in the real Periodic Table. This was a deliciously clever way to connect chemistry with everyday items!

On Monday, our dedicated National Honor Society students partnered with members of the local Masonic Temple for a community service initiative through the Adopt-a-Highway program. Together, they tackled roadside litter along M-20 and M-120, collecting over 40 bags of trash. Their hard work and commitment to keeping our community clean is a true reflection of leadership, service, and pride. Way to go, NHS!
