Lucky to be Learning at HJH
Parents,
We are at a critical point in the year. This is a time of year we tend to see student stress increase...they start looking forward to summer break, and we are trying to get them to focus on learning.
Beyond regular class times, we have times built into the day when we can teach, reteach, and spiral skills with students.
- Morning tutorials w/teachers (as scheduled) and in GCS (open to all)
- Enrichment - M/T/W/F during 6th period
- Study Hall - Th. during 6th period
Please reinforce positive behavior and high expectations with your student(s) daily. They may be growing, but they are not grown. They still need us to provide structure and reassurance daily.
Thank you for partnering with us in your child's education. Please reach out if we can help in any way.
