Last night, our JV boys basketball team wrapped up its successful season with a victory over Capac, going 18-4! It was also Senior Night and marked the final night our incredible group of seniors would step onto their home court. They closed out their home careers with a huge victory, putting an exclamation point on an era in which they have gone an impressive 35-1 in the league and 82-9 overall. This group isn't done yet, though! They now take their 19-3 season record into the postseason, where they open district play Wednesday night at USA at 5:30 pm. (Picture courtesy of Rita Messing.)

This is a GREAT opportunity for seniors (or adults in the community) who want to be a nurse and stay in the Thumb area with free tuition.

The countdown is on at HBCS for the Class of 2026! 🎓✨ As their final days draw closer, we’re excited to begin celebrating the incredible seniors who have made their mark on our school.
We’re kicking off our Senior Spotlights with Benson Harper! Stay tuned as we honor each member of the Class of 2026.

As you may be aware, there was a disruption to cellular service all over the area this morning that started between 12 midnight and 4:00 am. If this phone issue arises again, our "All Call" system would attempt to call or text cellular numbers, therefore, we urge the following:
-With many now using streaming services and not tuning into local TV stations, please listen to radio stations WLEW 102.1 and WCZE 103.7.
-We will also attempt to push through our website, app, and social media if internet services are available.
Thank you for your patience in this issue and Go Pirates.
