PRINCIPALS LETTER
Mary Donohue
Dear HTS Families: As you know, for the first time, all report cards for kindergarten through eighth grade will be distributed electronically. No hard copy report cards will be sent home. Report cards will be available on-line at the end of the school day on December 8, 2017. Within Power School, you will be able to see a “Report Cards” link listed under the Navigation Bar in the Parent Portal. This link will be active from December 8 – 22, 2017. If you click on the link, you will be able to view the report card, as well as have the option to print it. Parents in grades K-5 were given instructions for creating their Power School accounts at conferences, since elementary grades are only posted at the end of each trimester. Please note, for grades 6-8, the Parent Portal will be closed from December 1, 2017 – end of school on December 8th, as teachers work to complete their report cards. Thank you for your cooperation.
