We would like to remind folks about a few scheduling items for the upcoming week. Sunday, November 3 will be the end of daylight savings time and clocks will go back one hour. Tuesday, November 5 there will be no classes for students as faculty and staff take part in a Superintendent conference day and it is also election day where I hope all eligible people get out and vote! Friday, November 8 will be the annual Emergency Release Drill and students will be dismissed 15 minutes early and must exit the building.

Operation Santa Claus
Operation Santa Claus is a non-profit organization that provides clothing for local families in need during the holidays. Over 25,000 children receive gifts of food and clothing through funding from OSC every year. This program has been a staple in the HFCSD community for years, giving our local children and families the resources they need for the holiday season.
