Last week I sent out an all-call discussing our concern for the number of students who are failing classes because of missing assignments or not completing their work. First of all, I want to thank all of the students who have worked so hard this week to either maintain the great grades they already have or worked hard by turning in their work or by getting help this week to bring their grades back up. We are still very early in the semester and it is never too late to improve your grades! I wanted to remind both our students and our parents that this week Progress Reports will be going out to any student who has a D or an F. We encourage students and families to be checking their grades regularly through InfoNow which can be accessed at the bottom of the district website. In addition to this week’s Progress Reports and student and parental access to InfoNow, starting next week, HAHS will also be mailing home comprehensive progress reports at the end of every week to the parents of students who have an F in any of their classes. The comprehensive report will show the grades for each of the student’s classes as well as all of their points for assignments and any missing assignments or work up until that point. We hope that this will add an additional layer of support and communication for our students and parents as we work together to make sure all of our students are passing and graduate on time.
Again, we always encourage students (whether in-person students or remote learning students) who are struggling or in need of additional help to please be in continual contact with your teachers. Teachers are available Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday during remote learning time from 1:00-3:50 pm and they are available on Wednesday from 8:00-3:50. Both in-person and remote learning students have the ability to set up appointments with teachers during these times to come in for one on one instruction, set up a phone call, or to set up a virtual meeting through Google Meets. The high school staff is here for you to help you in any way they can to help all of our students to be successful. #CornjerkerPride

This is just a reminder that next Friday, September 18th progress reports will be mailed home to any student who has a D or F in any of their classes. As we have progressed through the first weeks of school, staff have noticed that many students have missing assignments or are not completing their work. Please remember students are accountable for the work they turn in and all of their grades in class. Students who fail classes will not be gaining the credits they need and could risk no longer being on track to graduate with the rest of their class. We encourage students and families to be checking their grades regularly through InfoNow which can be accessed at the bottom of the district website. We also encourage students (whether in-person students or remote learning students) who are struggling or in need of additional help to please be in continual contact with your teachers.

HAHS Picture Day
Students this is just a reminder that Picture Day is tomorrow. In an effort to be as paperless as possible, students and parents are encouraged to register online. Papers were sent home with students and there is also a link available on the school website. As a reminder, Remote Learning students are allowed to come to school between 12:30-3:00 after the in-person learners have left for the day to be able to come and get their pictures. Remote Learning students will still be screened before being able to enter to get their picture and will be required to wear a mask to enter the school. #CornjerkerPride
The staff at HAHS want to thank all of our students for an incredible first few days and such a great start to the new school year! #CornjerkerPride
This is a reminder that tomorrow is the first day of school for both our in-person and our remote learners.
For our in-person learners, the doors open at 7:50 am and classes begin at 8:20 am. When students arrive at school they will be screened and then will be given the opportunity to get breakfast. From there, they will be directed to their Homeroom 1st Hour Class. Students will be in school till 12:20 pm. Once dismissed, students will grab their sack lunch and leave school. Students needing to ride the bus will report to the library where they will eat and wait for the buses which will leave at 12:40 pm.
For our remote learning students, students need to report to school at some point between 1:00-4:00 pm. Once here, students will be screened and then directed to the office where they will get their chromebook and sign any needed paperwork. They will then go to meet their teachers and to get signed up for their Google classrooms and ask them any questions they have.
For all students, please remember that in order to receive your chromebook and charger, you must not have any outstanding charges or fees from previous years. If you do, those will have to be paid at the HS office before you receive your chromebook and charger for this year. #CornjerkerPride
