Latest News

Haines Sixth Grade Center has been doing some cool things lately. A few days ago the kids bowled together. March 19 was Family Literacy Night. They also began selling yearbooks; orders are due May 10. These events highlight how full their spring schedule is and there’s plenty to do for families and students. The yearbooks are special, as Haines gets his own book separate from Memorial. Which means sixth graders get a keepsake for their school only.
