March 2026

Hello HHS families, and welcome to March! It’s the start of the third trimester this week, and students have been scheduling classes for next year already! Final grades for this trimester should be available to see in PowerSchool by the end of the day on Thursday, March 5th. At that time, you may log into PowerSchool here to check your student’s grades.

For the class of 2026, your FINAL trimester of high school has arrived! There are MANY fun and memorable opportunities left before graduation arrives on May 21, at the Fieldhouse! For all of the “Graduation Season” dates, times, and preparations, please visit the senior class website here. We will send out more specific information about what’s coming your way to senior students & families very soon.

Spring MME Testing at HHS

Our Michigan Merit Exam testing season is coming up. Junior students will take the SAT + Essay, while 9th and 10th grade students will take the PSAT 9 or 10 on Wednesday, April 15.  Seniors will have CapFest (cap & gown distribution) and Career Fair that same morning here at the high school. Junior students only will have to complete the MME by taking the WIN test (replaced the WorkKeys test this year) and MSTEP tests. We will complete those during the school day on April 20-23. For a full detailed breakdown, click here. We will share more specific information with Junior students and parents as the testing dates approach. This is very important for students to be present, prepared, and ready to give their best effort! We thank you in advance for your support. 

Social Emotional Screener

We will be administering the district’s Social Emotional Screener on Tuesday, March 24 during Seminar.  You will receive an email with further details as well as the opt out form if you choose to have your student not participate.  This data is helpful for our Counseling Team to analyze trends, provide supports and respond to student needs.
