H-BC Secondary Families:

We had another great week at HBC Secondary!  Can you believe that there are only four more weeks of school in the 21-22 school year.  As we get closer to summer, please continue to encourage your student(s) to finish the school year strong academically and behaviorally.

Administrative Professionals Day:  We celebrated Ms. Starla Scholten on Wednesday, April 27.  This was a day to honor her, as it was Administrative Professionals Day.  Thank you for all you do for H-BC Ms. Scholten!

Teacher Appreciation Week

 May 2-6, 2022 is National Teacher Appreciation Week.   Please join us as we celebrate our HBC Teachers.   Please join me in recognizing our amazing teachers by sending your student(s)’ teachers a kind email/note letting them know you appreciate them.  

One new procedure we started this quarter is to have all students on the deficiency list turn in his/her phone during study hall.  This will deter distractions and encourage students to use his/her study hall time for homework/studying.  The goal is not to punish students but to create a system that encourages them to do their best and pass all classes.   Students who fail his/her class will need to complete credit recovery to graduate on time.  

Here is the link to the May Newsletter if you missed it. LINK

Deficiency Lists for the Start of 4th Quarter- (New)

As we emphasize the importance of academics and being well-rounded students, athletes and participants of co-curricular activities, please be reminded that we have continued to utilize the Deficiency List.

If a student is on the Deficiency List, students must turn in their phone with their respected study hall teacher(s) to promote students engaging in their school work.   Students should hand in their phone to the teacher at the beginning of class and will get their phones back at the end of class.  If you have any questions, please contact Mr. Kellenberger.  

The Deficiency List / Academic Eligibility is located in Section 9 of the Secondary Student Handbook (LINK).  

This slide explains the different levels of deficiencies.  Parents and students will receive an emailed letter notifying them if their student is on the deficiency list.  Please continue to support your student who may be struggling with completing school work. 

The picture below shows the different levels of the Deficiency List.
