HMS & HHS TSA Students Met With Success at 2019 TSA Conference
Students from both Hamden High School and Hamden Middle School attended the 2019 TSA CT State Conference on Saturday, March 23rd at Conard High School in West Hartford. Students competed in 19 STEM and leadership events.

Morning Math Help
Morning Math is available daily for students who:
- Need computer access to complete their weekly 25 minutes of Moby Max;
- Want to get their Moby Max homework out of the way so they don't have to do it at home;
- Like to start their day in a quiet, productive setting where they can get help with math.
Students who would like to attend should get a pass from Mr. Ugolik when they enter the building. Then, they must go directly to Room 222 in House 1 on the second floor and work with Ms. Peccini and Ms. Willis.
