Necessary School Immunizations
Just a reminder your student will need to get immunizations before the start of the 2022-23 school year. Now is a great time to schedule an appointment with your doctor to get those done this summer. The State required immunizations are the Tdap and Meningitis (MCV).
Immunizations are also available through most pharmacies and the health department:

https://www.hamiltoncounty.in.gov/278/Immunization-Information 317-776-8500
Once you get them completed, please send record of these vaccines to our nurse via email, jmiley@hse.k12.in.us or fax to 317-915-4239.
Thank you for taking the time to complete the immunizations.

A Message from Our Food Services Team
Dear HSE Families:
This school year, meal prices will resume. The funding allowing us to offer free breakfasts and lunches to our students during the COVID-19 pandemic has expired.
What does this mean for your family?
Hamilton Southeastern Schools participates in the National School Lunch Program which provides free or reduced-price meals to qualifying students. Families must re-apply for these benefits each year, even if you qualified previously. Applications and participation are confidential.
How do I know if my family qualifies?
Households are encouraged to apply before the start of the school year to avoid unpaid meal charges.
How do I apply for assistance?
- Log into your Skyward Family Access account. Be sure to use your parent login and not your student’s login. The application is only available with a parent Skyward login.
- Select a student.
- Click on ‘Food Services’ on the left-hand side of the screen.
- Click on the ‘Applications’ link located towards the top of the screen, then click ‘Add an Application.’
- The system will take you through a series of steps, including a Parent Letter, Instructions, Federal Income Chart, Privacy Act and Non-Discrimination Statements.
- For complete instructions, click here.
You can also download Indiana Department of Education an application by clicking here.
If my family doesn’t qualify, what are the meal prices?
Meal prices for 2022-23 will be approved by the School Board on July 27.
If you have any questions, please contact Nutrition and Food Service Director Karen Ogden at 317-594-4100 or kogden@hse.k12.in.us.
Thank you and we look forward to serving your child this school year!
Sincerely,
HSE Schools
A Message Regarding ParentSquare
Good afternoon,
We have switched from Skylert to ParentSquare for our mass communication platform (Skyward is still being used for grades, attendance, etc.). We realize there are many methods for communication in HSE Schools, by moving to ParentSquare we will be able to reduce some of those methods.
ParentSquare is a simple-to-use platform that provides a safe way for everyone at a school to connect. With ParentSquare, you'll be able to:
- Receive messages from the district and school via email, text or app notification
- Choose to receive information as it comes or all at once at 6 p.m. daily
- Communicate in your preferred language
- Comment on school postings to engage in your school community
- And more all from your phone or web portal!
We invite you to go to www.parentsquare.com/signin to activate your account. Once on the site, put in your email address we have linked to your student in the Sign Up/Create Password section on the right side of the page. Then click “Go”. You will be receive a link to your email account to continue to setup process. PLEASE CHECK YOUR SPAM FOLDER if you do not receive the link. Once signed in, if you have a phone number setup in Skyward you will be asked to confirm the number. Also, you will be asked to confirm your students.
After you create your account, we recommend downloading the ParentSquare app from the Apple or Google Play store. With the app, you can enable push notifications on your phone for alerts as well as set a language preference.
If you need to make any changes to your email or phone numbers, please log into Skyward and make those changes under the Student Info section.
Thank you,
Hamilton Southeastern Schools
