This message is from Heard County Middle School. Tomorrow will be a distance learning day due to many roads in the southern portion of Heard County being unsafe. Each teacher has created an assignment for every class. These assignments are located on the Heard Middle website (hms.heard.k12.ga.us). At the top of the webpage, click on “menu” and then click “documents”. You then will click the file labeled “distance learning assignments”. Last click the link within that folder and it will redirect you to a shared google drive organized by grade and/or content area. Hopefully, we will return to school Friday. We will keep everyone updated as soon as we find out more information.
