🎉 At Hazard Middle School, we believe every student deserves a friend. That's why we've added a BUDDY BENCH to our playground! Here's how it works: if you're feeling lonely or looking for someone to talk to or feel connected to, just take a seat on the bench. When classmates see someone sitting there, they will know it's time to step up, be a friend, and invite them to join in.
The Buddy Bench signifies what we believe here at Hazard Middle School-we believe in kindness and making sure no feels left out. We want our school to be a place where EVERY STUDENT BELONGS!
Today we celebrated the Buddy Bench by having a ribbon cutting ceremony. Thank you Partners for Rural Impact for making this possible! 💙💛

🎉Hazard Middle School 8th graders recently traveled to Georgetown to tour Bluegrass Community & TechnicalCollege and the Toyota Motor Manufacturing Plant. This experience gave students the opportunity to explore a wide range of future career paths, see innovative technology in action, and gain a deeper understanding of what college and career life can look like. We are grateful to PRI, Mr. Hurt, and our dedicated school staff for providing such a meaningful and memorable opportunity that inspires our students to dream big about their futures. 💙💛

Prize Patrol Winners!

🎉Hazard Middle School's afterschool art enrichment blossomed with creativity last week as students enjoyed a 'banging good time' exploring the craft of metal stamping! With hammers in hand and imaginations at work, they transformed simple pieces of metal into beautiful jewelry, unique keychains, and even charming pet tags. Guided by the talented resident artist Jill Robertson, each student had the chance to design a personalized creation that sparkled with individuality and pride. Thanks to Full-Service Community Schools for making this experience possible! 💙💛
