HCGS Parents,
It was wonderful to see all of the students and have them back in the building today. The teachers and I are excited for another great year as well. Just a quick note for tomorrow... Parents, please talk with your student/s in the morning and discuss where you will meet when school lets out. Since we are using several exits, students may be confused on where they are to meet-up with parents at the end of the day.
Thanks,
Mr. Granberry
Please be advised, HCJSHS doors will open at 7:45 am. There was a glitch between the USD 281 website live feed and our district Facebook page.
I hope this message finds everyone doing well. I want to welcome and wish you a safe and enjoyable school year. Please understand there will be some differences as this year kicks off. The teachers and staff have been working hard to be ready for you on Monday. I want to let you know that the building will not open until 7:45 am daily and everyone will need to enter though the main entrance by the office or from the north parking lot door across the hall from the office. Temperatures will be taken as you enter the building. Have a great weekend and I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday.
