Hancock Place Middle School

There are still openings available for the St. Louis Junior Bonds Program for eligible incoming 8th grade students for the 2025-2026 school year! This incredible program provides a $5,000 investment account to help students begin building long-term financial security and future opportunities.

Due to the potential for severe weather in our area, as indicated by the National Weather Service, we are taking precautionary measures to ensure the safety of our students and staff. We will be dismissing 2 hours early and all after school activities are canceled. We appreciate your understanding as we prioritize safety.

8th Grade Families - Reminder that Freshman Night is Wednesday, 4/22 at 5:30.

Congratulations to Yoatzi for being recognized as our Kiwanis Outstanding Student. Keep up the great work!!!

Changes for district middle and high school resident bus riders will begin on this Wednesday, March 25th!

To improve drop-off procedures at the middle school and reduce traffic backups onto Ripa Avenue, the following change will be implemented:

Bus routes will run 5 minutes earlier at each stop, allowing buses to arrive at the middle school and begin unloading students at 7:20 a.m. This ensures students have time to eat breakfast and be in class, ready to learn, by 7:40 a.m.

Car riders will use the Conn Avenue side of the building while buses are on the lot. Once buses depart, car riders may resume drop-off in front of the middle school.

📣 Opportunity for Hancock Place Middle School 8th Graders!

The St. Louis Junior Bonds Program is now accepting applications, and Hancock Place Middle School students qualify. This program will select 300 current 8th grade students from eligible St. Louis area districts to receive an investment of about $5,000, which will grow over time and be available starting in 2030.

Funds can be used for important future goals like college, buying a first home, starting a business, or retirement savings. The program also offers free financial planning resources to help students and families plan for the future.

Students must meet program eligibility requirements to apply.

If you’re the parent or guardian of an 8th grader at Hancock Place Middle School, this could be a great opportunity to support your child’s future!
