Dear HJHS families and staff,
HCS is continuing to roll out Evolv Technology, advanced detection systems, to provide an additional layer of security to promote the safety of students and staff members. We are subject to having these systems at our school at any time, so we stress the importance of ensuring students cannot access any items that may be potentially harmful to themselves and others.
Please speak with your child about the updates below to our arrival procedures in the event we have these systems on campus. Drop-Off and School Start Times
- Drop-off times and school start times will not change.
- Drop-off will begin at 7:15 a.m.
- School will start at 8 a.m.
- We encourage families to drop off their students slightly earlier to provide them with a few extra minutes to get through the system.
- Guests will continue to report to the front office.
Where to Enter
- Car Riders: Enter through the front doors of the school.
- Bus Riders: Students will be crossing in the ground level crosswalk and entering through the front doors of the school. Drivers, please use caution on Adams Street.
When Entering the Building
- Staff members will be on hand to greet students as they enter and request them to remove any laptops and water bottles from their bookbags.
- Students will walk through the Evolv system one at a time in the lobby.
- While walking through the system, students should hold up their device and water bottle in each hand.
We thank you for your support, and we appreciate your partnership in promoting the safety of our students and staff members.
