In order for it to stay interesting and fun for our students, we need your help! We have put together an Amazon wishlist, but things do not have to be purchased through Amazon. Aldi, Dollar Tree and more are just as great to us! Our kids enjoy trinkets, individually wrapped candy, theater box candy, chips, snack cakes — really anything! If you are able, we would love your help making this school year the best EVER!

No school Sept. 4 and 7. We hope all our Saxons have a restful, safe long weekend. We look forward to seeing you all on Tuesday!

📸 PICTURE DAY IS TOMORROW!
Hastings Middle School Picture Day is Wednesday, September 2, from 8:00–10:00 a.m.
Students received a picture packet on their first day of school. Families have two options:
• Order with the packet: Complete the form and send it with payment.
• Order online: Use the unique student code found in the upper-left corner of the packet to order pictures online.
📚 Don’t forget your yearbook!
Yearbooks can be ordered using the bottom-right corner of the picture packet, highlighted in yellow, or online. While you're ordering pictures, this is a great time to order your yearbook, too!
Please take a few minutes tonight to make sure your student is ready for Picture Day tomorrow! 📸💙💛

Through the Baum Family Foundation, their ongoing generosity continues to transform our community. From upgrading Johnson Field with brand-new stadium lights last season and fresh turf over the summer, to covering athletic fees so no Saxon student ever has to pay to play, their impact touches every corner of our program.
The Baum family legacy is undeniable, and Hastings is so much stronger because of it!

While the Saxons came up short tonight, dropping a hard-fought battle to Thornapple-Kellogg 25-16, it was a high-energy, entertaining game that sets the stage for an exciting season ahead.
Win or lose, it's always: Go Saxons!
