Thanks to @HBRFFA429 for providing their annual breakfast a little differently this year. The sandwiches ordered from the Big Rock Cafe and Hinckley Cafe was a great way to rethink this #FFAWeek annual tradition! #WeAreHBR #RoyalPride

Congratulations to Mr. Kriesch on tonight's Board approval to be the @HBRHS429 Principal next school year. Looking forward to seeing how your communication and collective collaboration lead to creative change as we strive to meet the needs of our students and staff. @KrieschHBRHS

Just a few #429Cares snippets today! We are up to 300 of our 429 goal. Can you help us get there? 6 more days to go! "{Teacher} makes me laugh everyday and always comes with fun stories to tell us!" "Every day when I log into {teacher} meeting she makes me smile." "{Para} goes the extra mile to support my son during her lunch time. He would be lost without her!"

Thanks to our Hinckley-Big Rock Board President, Eric Wackerlin, for helping us clear off the snow from our soccer field @HBRHS429 in preparation for the upcoming seasons this spring! @HRMS29, you're next. #429Cares #ItTakesAVillage #RoyalPride #TogetherWeGotThis
