Our sixth-grade and essentials teachers were excited to meet our new Hughes students at this morning's Ready to Roar session.

Look at these young Hughes scholars! We're looking forward to working with them this year.

Many of our new Hughes students got to meet their teachers today and explore their schedule. Everyone is excited about working with so many bright young students.

Seventh-grade, eighth-grade, and essentials teachers all chipped in to help our new sixth-grade students figure out where they were going next during today's Ready to Roar orientation. That's not surprising since we're teachers: we love to help!

Students and parents arrived this morning for our first Ready to Roar session of the day. While the students met their teachers, parents met with administrators and other facilitators (including our amazing PTSA volunteers) in the school.

Welcome to our new Hughes students! We're looking forward to an exciting and productive year with you all!

New students and their parents got their first view of Hughes life today during the Ready to Roar session.

Who wouldn't want to work with these wonderful new students? We're so excited to have them join the Hughes family.

New sixth-grade students met their teachers today during Ready to Roar and went through their new schedules class by class. We're all excited about the new year!
