Please save the date below that corresponds with your child's Social Studies teacher's name. More information coming home soon regarding our Student-Led Conferences(SLCs). It is a foundational element of HIS as we believe that students should help be a leader in their learning. These conferences allow them to do just that. We look forward to seeing you there.
Will go live on MySchoolBucks this week!
Book Fair Dress Up Days:

Make-up Work and Missed Assignments:
The HIS Parent/Student Handbook states the following:
Students who are absent are required to make up work missed in each class. It is the student's responsibility to obtain all make-up work from his/her teachers immediately upon return to school. Only in extreme cases of prolonged absences will more than one week be allowed for work to be made up.
In an effort to support students and help with the transition to a new grade level, we have been more lenient with our make-up work guidelines during 1st nineweeks. As we begin the second nine weeks of school, please be aware that we are going to stick more closely to our stated policy. However, teachers will still have the discretion to work with students and parents when there are prolonged absences or extenuating circumstances.
Please help your student know that they need to talk to their teachers and write in their planners the work that needs to be completed. They should also check their Google Classroom for assignments that were posted while they were absent.
We appreciate your support as we work with students to build their sense of responsibility and ownership of their learning.

Parent Guides
Carline Parents/Guardians: Thank you for your help with our adjusted A-K car format. We were asked by Central office and the city to help open up the traffic on Sparkman and at the west traffic light. Commendations to Officer Al for helping us make this transition. Should you still have questions, feel free to reach out to Officer Al, Mr Hembree or myself. No process is perfect; however, we do strive to be at our best everyday and serve our students and families with excellence!
As always, safety is our priority and if you can help us with cordiality with the merging process, that will expedite the process. Again, as adults we want to model #TheTigerWay for our students and children while on campus.
Thank you for your help with this!
