Senior Portrait Makeups
We have been in conversation with our official photography studio about makeup portrait sessions. For the sake of efficiency and safety we have agreed that we will employ a wait and see approach before confirming specific dates for any additional makeup sessions. They will happen; when we are able to confirm dates, we will make an announcement.

Class of 2021 Senior Rock!
Applying to college? Plan to attend one of these October financial aid nights
High school seniors and their parents should mark their calendars to attend one of the upcoming virtual Paying for College Workshops offered by The College Place-VA to hear about the important areas of focus for preparing to pay for a college education.
This presentation will provide helpful information for parents and students on the following topics:
- College costs in VA,
- Federal and state financial aid,
- The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form,
- Scholarships, and
- Family conversations about college financial planning.
After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the meeting.
If you have any questions before the presentation, contact the presenter, Tomika Brown, director of The College Place-VA, at tbrown@ecmc.org.
Reach out to your student reps to have your voices heard!
Caroline Silvera, a senior here at Hylton, is one of the Student Representatives to the School Board for the 2020-21 school year, representing over 90,000 students in Prince William County. "My job is to bring student voice to the School Board and bring School Board matters to the students. This year, I'd love to hear student feedback from you all, so please contact me at silvercf21@pwcs-edu.org. Don't forget to follow my twitter @carolinepwcs for updates!"
Victoria Miranda, another Senior, is our Student Senator to the School Board representing Hylton High School. She wants to make sure that this year students feel represented and comfortable voicing their opinions and concerns about online learning and school in general. You can follow her on Twitter @victoriapwcs or email her at mirandvv21@cdhylton.com
The student senate is made up of the 13 senators from each of the high schools and the three student representatives. The roles of the senator and the representative are distinct and unique. The student reps sit at and present at school board meetings and are non-voting members. The reps also plan senate meetings and organize the senate. They are the main conduit between thousands of students’ voices and the School Board, although students are always welcomed to email the board to speak to them directly. While the student reps present student ideas at board meetings and lead the senate, the student senators have the critical job of collecting student input at each of their schools. The senator position was created so that there would be a more efficient method of gathering input from each of the schools, rather than having one or two reps go to all the schools individually.
