HRVHS Weekly Updates
Friday June 4th, 2021
Hello HRVHS Families,
Next week is our last full week of school, please log into HAC with your student to check on their progress. Keep in mind that students will not have the ability to earn credit after this school year on any passed Incomplete grades. Teachers are available to connect with and support students with these Incompletes so that they can earn credit and stay on track towards graduation. Check with your students counselor, ELC teacher, or call the office with any questions about this.
Counseling Department Update
🎓 The countdown has begun! Next week is GRADUATION for the Class of 2021. If you have any concerns regarding your student’s academic progress towards graduation, please reach out to your student’s counselor. Please keep in mind that we are having summer school this year. If your student does not meet all graduation requirements, summer school is an option for them to finish up.
🎓 Most end-of-the-year and graduation information for seniors will be shared in ELC. Encourage your student to attend ELC and be on time. This is very important for the next two weeks. We do not want them to miss any important information!
