Our last asynchronous E-Learning Day is coming up Monday, February 10. Assignments will be available in Canvas on Thursday so that students can ask teachers questions on Friday. All assignments will be due by midnight Monday night. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child's teacher.

All student cell phones and smart watches must be turned off and left in the students' cubbies (5-6) or lockers (7-8) during the school day. We are starting to see more phones and smart watches during class time. We are also seeing more students contacting parents throughout the day to leave without following proper procedures. Any student may call home by using the phone in the front office. If a student doesn't feel well, he/she must go to the nurse first before having a nurse or office team member contact a parent. Thank you for your cooperation.

We are in need of substitute teachers, especially as we enter the cold and flu season during the school year. Good substitute teachers who can help us continue the learning process when a teacher is absent are critical to supporting all students. We also provide $10/day premium pay for the day immediately preceding and following Breaks: Fall, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring. Please click here or contact Monica Leibert (mliebert@hhschuskies.org) if you have any interesting in becoming a substitute teacher. That is how I began my education career.

Our Study Tables program is available again every Tuesday and Thursday from 3:25-5:00. Study Tables is not one on one tutoring, but there is at least one teacher or instructional assistant who supervises and can provide some support. Many students have found this helpful in the past. If you would like your child to participate, he/she should go to the gym to be supervised from 3:00-3:25, then the study tables supervisor will direct the students on where to go for Study Tables (Media Center or the teacher’s classroom). Students must stay for the duration of the study tables unless you provide the office with notification ahead of time that your child needs to be dismissed early. Students may be picked up outside of Entrance O at 5:00.

It takes at least 4 people to help the car rider pick-up process go smoothly each afternoon. If you would like to volunteer to help us for 10-15 minutes after school each day, please contact me. We've had a few great volunteers in the past who really helped us serve our families well with this process. It would be helpful if we had a few more volunteers for the new school year. Thank you for your consideration.
