Are you interested in serving on the HMS Yearbook Staff?
Being part of the HMS Yearbook Staff is a unique opportunity to capture the memories, spirit, and stories of our school year. In this elective class, students work as a team to write, photograph, design, and organize content for the HMS yearbook. This survey helps us get to know you better—your skills, creativity, and work habits—so we can build a team that is responsible, talented, and ready to make this year’s yearbook the best one yet. Your honest answers will help us match students to roles where they can shine and grow throughout the year. Being on staff last year does NOT guarantee your spot this year. All interested candidates should complete this interest form by end of school on April 24.
Interest Form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScqgRsHWaf3JtP2eILd5MNNYXvQvxZ9-YZcCgzBR7KUBxx7rA/viewform

Attention Students interested in representing HMS as our beloved BUCKY! Bucky does far more than support the cheerleaders, He represents our school and community. In past years, he was so beloved that they made him the Grand Marshall of the Haughton Christmas Parade. Bucky has been asked to do "Breakfast with Bucky," for a local community fundraiser, and he supports all school athletic and community service events like the Veteran's Breakfast, Military Appreciation Night, and more. As the HMS Mascot, you will be expected to be a positive role model for our students and community members. The mascot follows the same constitution as HMS Cheer and must be committed to our attendance policy and our standard of excellence.
To tryout, you must create your own mascot skit.
Email your original skit idea to amanda.temple@bossierschools.org by 2:35 pm Wednesday, April 8.
Stay after school on Thursday, April 9 to perform your skit idea for judges. You will be required to wear the Bucky costume for your tryout.
If selected, you must attend the VARSITY fitting on Friday, April 10 and be prepared to pay your $300 mascot fees. These fees cover your spirit gear and registration for NCA Camp.
Mascots must also be available to attend NCA Cheer Camp July 6-9.
