The Middle School is excited to bring back this fun Homecoming fundraiser! Students in PreK–8th grade can bring in just $1 to choose between having their face painted or getting a temporary football or Pirate tattoo on Homecoming!
Notes went home with all elementary students today, and students can turn their $1 in to their classroom teacher.
Thank you for supporting Middle School PBIS and helping us make Homecoming even more fun! 🧡

Cross Country had a fantastic showing in Holly on Saturday, with nearly every member of both teams posting a PR! Congratulations to medalists Owen Wruble, Juliet Siemen, Cailin Spearman, and Esther Bulgrien. Both Freshman and JV volleyball were also in action Saturday and had solid outings in their tournaments!
On Friday, our Forensic Science students put their observation and communication skills to the test with a fun “Sketchy Characters” activity! Students worked in partners, with one student getting just 30 seconds to study a “perpetrator.” They then had to describe the suspect to their partner, who used only those verbal descriptions to create a sketch—just like a real crime scene sketch artist! It was a great way to see how important observation, attention to detail, and clear communication are in forensic science! 🔎📝
Missed Picture Day or need a retake? Picture Retakes will be on Wednesday, October 8!
We hope you have had a great weekend! Here is a look at what is happening in the week ahead at HBCS.
🎨 Senior Sunday! 🎨
A couple of weeks ago, our Seniors gathered to paint the Spirit Rock—adding their own little piece to a tradition that has been part of so many Pirate memories. 🏴☠️🧡

When the juniors finish up their quizzes, they’re always ready to lend Ms. King a helping hand! These kiddos jumped right in to help put together her new cart. Thanks for always being willing to help out, Pirates! 🛠️🏴☠️🧡
👋 If today's New Staff Spotlight looks familiar, there’s a good reason! She’s not only a proud Harbor Beach graduate, but she has also previously served our district in another role. Today, we’re excited to reintroduce Amber Pleiness as our new K–12 Community/School Liaison Counselor! We’re thrilled to welcome Amber back to HBCS in this new role and look forward to all the ways she will support our students, families, and school community. 🏴☠️🧡

HBCS would like to say THANK YOU to Ashlee Stanley and the American Legion Auxiliary Unit 197 for their generous donation of supplies for our staff! Ashlee took the time to reach out to teachers at all 3 levels to learn which supplies were most needed, shopped for, and delivered them on behalf of the American Legion! We are so grateful!
The JV Football game scheduled for tonight at 6:30PM will not be televised on the NFHS network due to technical difficulties.
Hey youth hunters (and parents of youth hunters)! We would love to share pictures from your successful hunt last weekend. Please email them to pr@hbpirates.org to be featured on our social media!
JV volleyball picked up a nice win over Marlette last night while varsity battled before dropping their game.
