As we prepare for the start of the next school year, it's time register your student for 2024-25. This is something we ask ALL current HPS families to do EVERY year. 

Completing the registration lets us know your student(s) will be returning next year!  It also lets you:

• Review and update household contact information
• Review and update student health information
• Request transportation for the 2024-2025 school year (Deadline to request bussing is August 1)

Without this information, your student can not be added to a class list for next year OR have a class schedule created for them.

The Deaf and Hard of Hearing Program went on a college visit to the only Deaf and Hard of Hearing liberal arts college in the world, Gallaudet University in Washington, DC.

Our school will be hosting a presentation on OK2SAY – Michigan’s student safety program for students.

• K-5 students: Thursday & Friday, April 18 & 19
• HMS students: Tuesday, April 23
• HHS students: Wednesday, April 17

The program is designed to inform students how they can help make their school and community safer by reporting dangerous and concerning behaviors to a trusted adult or OK2SAY.
