What a special day at Hinks! We loved celebrating our Hawk of the Week students with a special lunch surrounded by their families.

It was so wonderful to see our Hinks families come together to celebrate our amazing Hawk of the Week students. Moments like these remind us how special our school community truly is!

Congratulations to all of our Hawks of the Week! We are so proud of you!
