Hanby Middle School

Hanby Middle School 6th-8th grade public school part of the Central Point School District #6 Welcome to new school year.

My name is Scott Dippel and I am the principal here at Hanby Middle School. I am a School District #6 graduate and have spent my entire career in the district. My family has worked at or attended a District #6 school for more than 80 consecutive years. I understand the long standing traditions of Hanby and their importance to our community in Gold Hill. In being the principal of both schools, I am

committed to scheduling time every day. It is important to me that staff, kids, and parents identify me as the principal and that I am accessible each day. With the reduction of staff and reduction of programs, we are at a challenging point in education. I will work to guarantee our students a high rigor of academics, a safe school community, and a broad range of educational experiences. I hope you will visit our school’s events and please introduce yourself when you see me.
-----Scott Dippel,
Principal

Hanby Huskies took learning on the road (and straight into the fun zone) at Rogue X! 🐾💙🖤

Our 6th graders got to explore, play, and make memories together — the kind of day that reminds you school is about connection as much as it is classrooms. High-energy, big smiles, and plenty of “did you SEE that?!” moments. 😄🙌

Hanby celebrated Principal’s Day in the best way today! 🧀💙🖤
Mr. Hamasu is truly “nacho average principal,” and our Huskies made sure he felt the love with a special banner and a “nacho” mural made of kind notes.

The fun kept rolling as our 6th grade leadership students led a great Spirit Week assembly featuring student speeches, a Star Wars obstacle course, and a staff vs. students basketball game!

We’re so grateful for Mr. Hamasu’s leadership and for the students who made today so special. Go Huskies! 🐾

🌺🌴 Hanby understood the assignment for Spirit Week — Hawaiian Day edition! 🌴🌺

The Huskies showed up in full island mode with leis, florals, and big smiles

Spirit Week is one of the best reminders that school is also about belonging, fun, and showing up for each other. 🐾✨

What an incredible Día del Niño celebration at Hanby! 🎉 It was so much fun to see our 6th–8th graders laughing, connecting, and just enjoying time together across grade levels.

Celebrated on April 30 in Mexico, Día del Niño is a day dedicated to honoring children and the joy they bring to our communities. 🇲🇽

Our students spent the day rotating through art, food, sports, dance, music, and games stations—such a joyful way to celebrate the amazing kids who make Hanby such a special place! 💙

Hanby understood the assignment today. 😄💇‍♀️✨

Crazy Hair Day = creativity unlocked — and these Huskies showed up with full commitment (including a truly legendary “water bottle ponytail” situation). 😂👏

Drop a 🌀 if your kid would 100% do this… or a 🙋‍♀️ if you would’ve done this in middle school.
