Our awesome fifth graders just took home their own copies of the annual “My Future Me” book, hot off the press from J-Ad Graphics.
This special keepsake is packed with letters from students in schools across the county, written to their future selves. Inside holds big dreams, bold advice, and some heartwarming and hilarious predictions.
Fifth graders had a special visit today from Judge Michael Schipper!
Judge Schipper spoke with them about his role in the judicial system and gave them an introduction to how our legal system works. Thank you, Judge Schipper, for taking time out of your busy schedule to educate our students!
Our district is excited to launch a mobile app designed to keep students, parents, and community members informed and connected right from their phones. Since most families rely on mobile devices as their primary source of communication, we partnered with a developer to create a custom app just for Hastings.
With the Hastings Area School System app, you can read the latest announcements, access staff contact information, view upcoming events and find important documents and resources.
The app is free to download and available on both the Apple App Store and Google Play.
It’s everything HASS...in your pocket.

Move over, Milan, Paris, and New York, the real fashion capital might just be Northeastern Elementary.
Yesterday, Mrs. Langeland, Mrs. Slagel, and Mrs. Nickels, which are three of our district’s more fashion-forward educators, showed up rocking identical outfits: denim jackets, black tops, and khaki pants. The best part? It wasn’t even planned.
Coincidence? Maybe. Style icon status? Absolutely.
Better jump on the trend before it hits the runway!
