BALTIMORE SUN NAMES HAMPSTEAD HILL ACADEMY
A WINNER OF THE BALTIMORE METRO AREA TOP WORKPLACES 2022 AWARD
Baltimore, Maryland, December 11, 2022 – Hampstead Hill Academy has been awarded a Top Workplaces 2022 honor by Baltimore Sun Top Workplaces. The list is based solely on employee feedback gathered through a third-party survey administered by employee engagement technology partner Energage LLC. The confidential survey uniquely measures 15 culture drivers that are critical to the success of any organization: including alignment, execution, and connection, just to name a few.
“Earning a Top Workplaces award is a badge of honor for companies, especially because it comes authentically from their employees,” said Eric Rubino, Energage CEO. “That’s something to be proud of. In today’s market, leaders must ensure they’re allowing employees to have a voice and be heard. That’s paramount. Top Workplaces do this, and it pays dividends.”
HHA Happenings
Note from Principal Hornbeck April, 2024
Houston, we have lift off! Our long-awaited construction project began March 18th. You will see a lot of progress in just a short time, including the placement of a portable construction office where the garden used to be (and will return in the future), the removal of all of the playground equipment and the beginning of “sheathing and shoring” construction boundaries around the perimeter of the new building. We have a fun time-lapsed camera set up to capture all of the action. I’d like to thank Site Superintendent Ben Border and his team of professionals from Whiting Turner for their work and communication each step of the way. Ben is first-rate, and knows the challenges we will face together. In about 12 months, we will have a brand new much larger gym, a new classroom, new student restrooms and a new foyer for the gym. We will begin to use the old gym as a multi-purpose learning space, restore the garden and build a smaller outdoor playground for our younger students. Older students will continue to have recess over in Patterson Park. Special thanks to Mark Larkin and his team of coaches from Coppermine who have rolled with these mid-year changes in recess routines. A special shout-out to Regina Vargas for taking on the task of recess crossing guard, a position dedicated to getting everyone safely back and forth from recess. A second recess crossing guard is scheduled to start shortly. I hope everyone had a relaxing break, and that you are ready for the home stretch.
