SAVE THE DATE: Parents of the Pride edCamp! 🦁

Our annual Parents of the Pride edCamp is October 21, 2026 from 5:30-7:30.  As we plan our upcoming Parents of the Pride edCamp, our goal is to provide sessions that help you partner with us in supporting your student throughout their time at Reedy. Parents will be able to attend 3 sessions of their choice at this event hosted by Reedy staff members. 

Please continue to monitor your student's progress in HAC and upcoming learning experiences in Canvas.  We encourage you to have your student communicate with their teachers(s) if they have questions or concerns.

Students who are or will be 18 on election day November 3, 2026 may register to vote by filling out a voter registration application card on Monday 9/28 or Tuesday 9/29 in the library at Reedy High School.
