HPMS E-Cybermission Student Website If you’ve ever experienced getting your walls dented, you know the pain and struggle of having to try and fix it. The Dent Stoppers, (Ehibor Moseri, Kate Manaj, and Jaclyn Tran) all knew first-hand what it was like to have dents. So, they decided that in this project, their goal was to find a way to stop wall dents. The Dent Stoppers created a website to explain their experiment process for a science project Ecybermission.
New Camera Policy for Distance Education Please see the attached letter from Mrs. Belknap, Principal in regards to a policy change for our students taking part in Distance Education. As a school, we feel as distance education continues it is essential that we know our students are engaged in their direct instruction and therefore that is why we are requiring our students to now turn their cameras on during direct instruction with their teachers. Students will be able to use any of the available backgrounds or blurring technology available through Google Meet. Parents who do not want their child to turn on their camera must email Mr. Taylor or any member of the administration from their email of record stating they would like their student to opt-out. If you have any questions regarding this policy change, please email any member of the school administration.
