September 26, 2021
Posted by Molly Couto on 9/26/2021 7:15:00 PMGood evening Hercules High Families and Community,
This is the Principal, Ms. Holland. It was a pleasure to see those of you who participated in our “Back To School Night” last week.
Please continue to remind your child to complete all of their assignments and projects, as well as study for their tests and quizzes.
Student reports Cards will be marked in three weeks, October 19th.
Please reach out to your child’s teachers if you have questions regarding your child’s progress in their classes.
Please remind your child of the following:
- Their facemask must be worn over their nose and mouth indoors and outdoors while they are on campus
- Students must wear a lanyard with a current school ID while they are on campus (Students without student ID and Lanyard will be required to either call home and have them delivered to them, or they will have to purchase a Student ID and Lanyard for $5.
- Students must dress appropriately according to school and district dress code, which includes no wearing of baseball caps, no tank tops exposing ones mid-section. Starting tomorrow students showing mid-sections will need to call home for additional clothing or wear loaner TShirts provided by the school
Along with dressing appropriately, please remind your child of the importance of being on time for class.
We will be having dress code and tardy sweeps this week and we do not want your child to be caught in these sweeps.
We are still working on filling our vacant teaching positions. Good news: We have Ms. Palis, a former HHS Teacher to sub in some of our math classes. Thank you Ms. Palis.
Special thanks to our Parent Teacher Organization for participating in our Back to School Night. Here is a link to join HHS PTO: https://forms.gle/
