January 2026


Happy 2026, and welcome back! I hope your holiday breaks were restful and full of memory-making fun with your families. We are excited to be back at HHS for 2026! For families with seniors, it may be hard to believe that your child’s graduation year has arrived. The Class of 2026 has reached the final few months of their time as high schoolers! The month of May will be here in the blink of an eye. We will send more detailed information regarding end of year activities for seniors as they approach. Enjoy these last months of making memories that will hopefully last a lifetime.


Thanks for taking a moment to read this month’s parent newsletter. There are a couple of links to follow for more information. Have a great start to 2026, and the remaining winter season!


A.I. Tools @HHS

We have been working closely with our staff and instructional technology team regarding the usage of artificial intelligence tools that have been prevalent in education recently, as well as in the workforce. To best prepare our students for life after high school, we want to encourage appropriate and ethical use of some of these tools, but with supervision and guidance. Please see this letter for a full explanation of our plan moving forward. Thank you!
