Coffee with the Principal Update
We will have our next Coffee with the Principal meeting on Tuesday, December 17. In an effort to give more people a chance to potentially make these meetings, I will be moving these to 4:30 p.m. at HHS. These will now take place in the back lab of the Library in the TLC. Signs will be up pointing you in the right direction. It is best to come in Entry 33 by the cafeteria/attendance office. There will continue to be an online option as well for those who would like to join that way.
The agenda for the meeting can be found here - Agenda
Looking forward to seeing all who can make it!
Winter Break
As a reminder, we will start our winter break at 3:15 p.m. on Friday, December 20. We will remain on break through Friday, January 3 and return to school on Monday, January 6, 2025.

Checking in on Math, Social Studies, Science, English, and Physical Education
As we hit the mid-term for the 2nd quarter today, please make sure you are checking in with your child on their grades and progress in classes. If you or your child have any questions on grades or assignments, please also encourage them to talk to their teacher and work through the situation earlier, rather than later. This week we also check in on Math, Social Studies, Science, English, and Physical Education. Go Bengals!

Parent Learning Night/Family Engagement Survey
As we continue to work on finding meaningful ways to engage our parents in our school community, we are hoping to gain some feedback on our next steps. Please consider completing this two question survey to help our committee plan for the remainder of the year.
The option descriptions are a little lengthier, but your feedback is genuinely appreciated.
Lockdown Drill Forthcoming
On Wednesday, December 11, we plan to hold our first Lockdown Drill for the year. Each year, we are required to hold a variety of drills - fire drills, lockdowns, shelter-in-place, etc. We try to plan these drills out to host one monthly and vary them based on the weather.
For our lockdown drill on Wednesday, teachers will work with their students to go through the protocols we need to follow if we are ever truly in that situation. We will make sure that is evident that this is a drill. If students or families ever have questions on our protocols or purpose of our drills, please do not hesitate to reach out.
