Hello, Homestead Students and Families!
Starting in 2022-23, Homestead moved the monthly newsletter from a PDF format to a more interactive experience via webpage! Click the tabs above to find specific updates and information.
Many students last year are familiar with the Wall of Distinction. The Wall of Distinction is a fun way to share your accomplishments and support your peers. These achievements will be seen around the school on the TV's in the hallways. These achievements can be inside or outside of school. If you want to to be featured, fill out this Google Survey!
