J.H.W. Updates

Dear Parents and Guardians,

As we embark on another school year, I want to emphasize the critical role that regular school attendance plays in your child's academic success. Consistent attendance not only ensures that your child is receiving the full benefit of their education but also helps them build good habits that will last a lifetime.

Here are a few reminders about school attendance:

1. Every Day Counts: Missing even a few days of school can add up and impact your child’s learning and performance.
2. On-Time Arrival: Please ensure that your child arrives at school on time each day to maximize their learning opportunities.
3. Submitting Excuses: Please submit excuses within 5 school days

Thank you for your continued support,

Mrs. Diane Comeaux, JHW Principal

We are so excited to continue to offer this wonderful technological tool to all of our students. Students will be issued a daily use Chromebook to complete activities; however, Chromebooks will remain on campus unless a need arises for remote learning.

Students must be in their homeroom no later than 7:23 to receive their Chromebooks in homeroom. Any student arriving after this time will not be allowed to go to homeroom to pick up their Chromebook (so as to not disturb that class). We appreciate your efforts in having students arrive at school on time.

Parents,

Due to safety issues, the drop-off and pick-up area is in the back of the school by the stadium. Please do not drop off or pick up students in front of the school.

Thank you for your cooperation.
