October is Bullying Prevention & Awareness Month. One way to help our schools to be "bully free" is to teach students to stand UP for others. For more information on bullying, check out resources here: https://www.henrietta-isd.net/page/social-emotional-learning

With Fall finally here, we wanted to share out some fun Fall things for you and your family to go to! Please contact the associated organization for any further details regarding each event. If we missed something, we apologize!

Curriculum mandated topics: child abuse prevention, drug & alcohol awareness, early mental health intervention, character lessons, etc. We will not have the preview for any puberty or related topics for tonight. That will be scheduled at a later time by the presenter of the curriculum.

Thanks for your patience with us while we continue to update our facilities. Go Bearcats!

Students created floats the represented museums around the country including the Museum of Ice Cream, the Museum of Pop Culture, the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, the Smithsonian Gardens, the NBA Hall of Fame, the MLB Hall of Fame, and the National WWII Museum.

HISD Counselors will be hosting a "Parent Preview Night" where parents of students grades K-12th will be able to preview the curriculum we will be using to cover state mandated topics. Some of these topics require parental consent in order for a student to receive that instruction. Those consent forms will be sent to you by your campus counselor. This is an opportunity for you to come view the curriculum in person and ask questions. All three campus counselors will be present along with our District Counselor. You may also preview the curriculum at home by going to this section of HISD website https://www.henrietta-isd.net/page/curriculum-instruction and clicking on "State Mandated Topics and Preview Links". Some of those links do not show the full curriculum due to copyright laws. To view the full curriculum, you will need to do that in person. If you are not able to attend and would like to view in person, you can click on the following links to request a time to view with the campus counselor: HES: https://forms.gle/ktuy2tmPJFDvWdnm6 HJH: https://forms.gle/DimFvZ4kxgCzGzoX8 HHS: https://forms.gle/6S3vhDn5V4bfoyBo7 We hope to see you there!

Henrietta Bearcats! It has been another great week in HISD, and I want to share a few updates with you as we head into the weekend. Progress continues on our bond projects, some that are visible, and some that may have caught you off guard if you were at the football game last week! The new stadium lights we were able to install because of bond funds can be turned on and off very quickly, unlike the old stadium lights that would take a long time to come back on. So when we score a touchdown, the lights flash on and off, which made some people think we were having a lighting malfunction! Keep an eye out for that at the next home game on Sept 20 vs. Seymour! That is Pioneer Reunion Night, and we hope to see you there! You will also notice the track surface has been torn up in preparation for new asphalt, which we expect to be installed next week. This is going to be a great surface for our track athletes, and of course for our cheerleaders at football games. I am sure you will see me out there walking to get a few steps in, and I invite you to take advantage of the track as well once the surface is completed! We are grateful for the support of our community as these bond projects come to life. It is a great time to be a Bearcat! Jaime Clark
