The first day of school is fast approaching! Here’s what you need to know for the school year, including back to school nights, bus schedules, school supply lists, emergency notifications and much more.
Families
HCPSS is in the midst of a systemwide school boundary review process, which could potentially impact any or all of our 74 comprehensive schools for the 2020-2021 school year. The Superintendent on August 22 presented his recommendations to the Board of Education for its consideration. The Board is scheduled to vote on November 21.
Students
All student drivers and a parent/guardian must attend to a safe driving program each year in order to get a parking permit. Students may attend a presentation at any location.
Partnerships
HCPSS and Comcast will develop communications strategies to inform and connect students and their families with supports and opportunities offered by HCPSS and the community.
