    HSTAT Unity Service Drive: Show us what community service means to you!

    For the last few weeks, members of the LINK club have been participating in a service drive. During this time, members of the club have taken part in individual acts of service (whatever that means to them), and have come back to our club meetings to share and discuss their experiences. 
     
    Now the club would like to open up this service drive to the entire school community. We're calling it: HSTAT Unity Service Drive: Show Us What Service Means to You".

Our Parents

We are committed to ongoing communication and prompt consultation with parents — parents can expect to be advised about all school-related issues. Our school uses the PupilPath website to bring you immediate information regarding your child’s education. PupilPath allows you to view your child’s assignments and projects along with the dates when they are due, as well as your child’s performance in each class including homework, classwork, tests, and projects. Using PupilPath you can also view your child’s transcript and graduation eligibility status. In addition, PupilPath enables secure communication between staff, students, and their families. School announcements and a calendar of upcoming events are posted on the website regularly. An active PTA is our partner in parent outreach, jointly sponsoring numerous parent workshops on current topics of interest to the school community. In addition to being members of all policy committees, the PTA offers teacher grants, student scholarships, and other financial support to the school.
