Student Awards
HMSA Aviators Make Their MARK!
By Dr. Anakonia Matsumoto, Principal
We are so proud to recognize our MARK award winners for their outstanding leadership traits at HMSA.
Our MARK (Motivation, Accountability, Respect, Kindness) program was initiated to promote and recognize the development of such characteristics among our students. The nomination process is rigorous, and all teachers must agree on the final award recipients for each subject and grade level. Students also receive peer MARK awards, where nominations and votes come from the students themselves. It is a wonderful time to come together as a school community to celebrate our student leaders. Parents are invited to celebrate their child’s accomplishments. Well done Aviators and keep making that MARK to make a difference!
Our most recent awardees from semester 2 of 2022-23 include:
