Hendricks Hotline

I can't believe that is the start of another school year! We have been hard at work this summer getting everything ready to welcome our Hurricanes, both new and returning, for an AWESOME year! We have several new faces on our staff and we are excited to welcome many new students! This first newsletter of the year is filled with important information about Back to School Night, Registration, New Car Rider Procedures, Transportation Links, Supply Lists, Introductions of New Staff, Information about applying for Free/Reduced Lunch and much more! As always, please contact the Hendricks office if you have any questions regarding the start of the 2024-2025 school year! We can't wait to see everyone on Monday, August 5th for Back to School Night and on Wednesday, August 7th for the first day of school!

Due to the construction taking place on McKay Road, there will be increased traffic on St. Joseph Street. This may lead to more congested drop off and pick up at Hendricks! We appreciate your caution and patience as we work through this construction!

All students must be enrolled through PowerSchool before they can begin the 2024-2025 school year. This includes returning students. Please visit www.scs.shelbycs.org/page/registration to register! We look forward to seeing all of our Hurricanes on Wednesday, August 7, 2024!

If you need to register for a Car Rider Number for the 2024-2025 school year, please use the attached link. You will only need a car rider number if your student will be picked up in the afternoon!

Car Rider Registration Link

Please be sure to check Infofinder at http://www.infofinderi.com/ifi/?cid=SCS5QTZ7SAUC for your bus and bus stop information.

If your student will be riding the bus to the Boys & Girls Club or Girls Inc., he/she will need to have a membership. Students will not be permitted to ride the bus to the Boys & Girls Club or Girls Inc. if they do not have a current membership! Students riding the bus to the Boys & Girls Club or Girls Inc. must enter the building after exiting the bus. Students will not be permitted to get into a car before entering the club.

We are providing Universal Free Breakfast for all Shelbyville Central students this year!

We encourage all families, regardless of income, to complete and submit a short, confidential school meal application prior to the start of the school year to ensure that there are no gaps in meal benefits for students who qualify for free or reduced-price meals. Parents or guardians can submit this application online at https://nutrilinktechnologies.com/products/free-and-reduced/ during Registration or in person at your child’s school office. It’s an easy and confidential way to ensure your child stays well-nourished at school.

If you have completed registration on PowerSchool, you may see a classroom assignment for your student. Please know that we are continuing to enroll students this week and are looking at balancing class sizes. Classroom assignments may change between now and August 5th.

We will finalize classroom placements by NOON on Monday, August 5th. We encourage you to check back on Monday afternoon as the current assignment may change. Class lists will not be posted so please check PowerSchool before heading over for Back to School Night! Thank you!

We look forward to having our Hurricanes, both new and returning, back at Hendricks on Wednesday, August 7, 2024 for the BEST FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL EVER!

Please join us in welcoming our new staff to Hendricks! We would also like to welcome Mrs. Seals who will be teaching in Life Skills and Ms. Suits who will be teaching our our SOAR program!
