This week’s students of the week are 7th graders Leah Medina and Joclyn Huerta. Leah was chosen for Caring. “I think I'm caring because I always try to be there for my friends.” Joclyn was chosen for Open Minded. “I'm open minded because I usually understand others.” Leah likes to play with her dogs in her free time. Her favorite memory here at Hogg was the sports ceremony. Her goal this year is to pass with good grades. Joclyn likes to play with her bunnies in her free time. Her favorite memory here at Hogg was when she started to get along with Ms. Mulready. Her goal this year is to pass with all 90’s.

This week’s staff member of the week is Ms. Segovia. Ms. Segovia exhibits the I.B. trait of Balanced. “I’m balanced because I was always involved in things as a kid, and my parents always told me to do it all.” She likes to read in her free time. Her goal this year is to go back to school. Her favorite memory here was when she first started working here and how welcomed she was by the 8th grade teachers.

At the end of every year, teachers and administration put their heads together and try to narrow down the long list of Hogg's high achievers. It's a tough job! Hogg has so many inspiring students that fall under the IB trait umbrella: Thinker, Open Minded, Risk Taker, Knowledgeable, Caring, Balanced, Reflective, Communicators, Inquirers and Principled.

Every year the Hogg PTA raises funds to support teachers in the classroom. At the annual Hogg Fundraiser Gala, parents can bid on different activities sponsored by Hogg teachers. One such activity was Librarian for the Day! These kiddos really stepped up and worked hard. They were surprised by the amount of email communication and heavy lifting required to get the job done.

As a reward to reading over the summer, kids celebrated with games and shakes in the library. Check out the summer reading activities for this upcoming summer! https://www.houstonisd.org/Page/132760
