IN THE NEWS

If you have started to drive and park at school, you will need to register your car. Go to Canvas, then “announcements” from the beginning of the school year, fill out the google doc and come to the Main Office for your parking tag. Reminder that parking for students is on the north side of the building. That is the lot between Bradley and Memorial all the spots in front of the stadium.

Bradley Blood Drive: Tuesday, January 25, from 3:00 – 8:00 PM, in the Auxiliary Commons. Open to the public. Visit RedCrossBlood.org, sponsor code BradleyHS.

From the Red Cross: Donate blood and be entered for a chance to win an exciting Super Bowl LVI getaway in LA for you and a guest! Plus, be entered to win a home theater package and $500 e-gift card (terms apply).

Just a reminder from Transportation– Hilliard City Schools is not allowing guests (non-assigned sudents) on buses. Due to the amount of students assigned to buses and COVID (particularly contact tracing), we cannot accommodate extra passengers at this time.

Parents / Students: If a student has a zoom/in-building appointment with an outside source, and they will be staying in the building for this, they still need a parent permission note for missing class(es). This is the same procedure as though they are leaving the building. They will need to sign out and back in at the Attendance office to make sure they get excused. It can be reported in School Messenger, or an email, hbrattendance@hboe.org, or give your student a note to give the attendance office.

If we don’t receive notification from parents, the student will be unexcused.

Students: Please watch your speed on Walker Rd in the school zone, before and after school. The speed limit is 20mph while the flashing lights are on.

Students/Parents: When a parent is dropping off something for their student, we will let the parent in to the vestibule to drop the item off on the table. Please make sure there is a name on it (pen and sticky notes are provided), and that the student is aware it has been dropped off.

NO Change or vending machine refunds: The office does not have change or refunds. For refunds, you will need to call the number on the machine.

NO Food deliveries: Remember that no food deliveries are allowed during the school day.

Notes:

-Students are not required to be here if they do not have an exam on a particular day.

-Students are not required to be here until their scheduled exam.

-Students are not required to stay after the last exam of the day. Students will be allowed to leave after the last exam of the day at 11:00am. If students exit the building after 11:00am, they will not be allowed to re-enter unless approved by the administration.

-Lunch will be provided to all students from 11:00am-12:00pm on exam days.

-Buses will run on our normal schedule. If students ride the bus in the afternoon, they have a couple of options:

From 12:00-2:32pm, they can attend a scheduled review session with their teacher(s)
Sit quietly in the commons, where they will be monitored by our study hall staff and hall monitors. Students will not be allowed to enter the academic hallways after 12:00pm unless they are in a class review session or making up an exam.

Counselor News – December 2021

The School Counseling Department is working on recruiting for our second semester senior workforce opportunities and realize the importance of parent nominations/input to ensure no student falls through the cracks who may be great!

You may already be familiar with the Worthington Industries program. We have expanded our partnerships, and the programs we are looking to match students with include:

Worthington Industries-manufacturing steel/cylinders

RT Moore-commercial plumbing/HVAC

EcoPlumbers-repair and installation plumbing

Rosati Windows-installation/contracting

We are focusing on seniors but will take names of juniors. The opportunities we are working on are skilled trades with lots of opportunities for future advancement and even college tuition to be paid for if the student decides later to attend college.

If you know of a student who might be interested in one of these programs please contact the school counseling office.
