Dear Retriever Families,
We hope that you are enjoying summer and are looking forward to the new school year! We have been busy preparing for our TREaSures to return and are gearing up for staff to join us in these efforts mid-August. All of our construction projects, which include roof replacement, pre-K classroom makeovers, and the addition of the portable classroom, are moving along and expected to be completed on time. We are excited to welcome new staff members to our team, and will share staffing updates in our August 18th Retriever Report.
A big WELCOME to our pre-K and kindergarten families, and families of students new to our TRES community in 1st-5th grades! We can’t wait to meet you! To kick off this new school year, we will meet our pre-K and kindergarten parents during their back to school night on Wednesday, August 23rd, from 6:30-8:00 p.m. On Friday, August 25th, from 9:00-10:15 a.m., we will host a welcome event for families of new students in 1st-5th grades. You can view all of our back to school events on our website, and note the upcoming events listed below.
Warmly,

PLEASE COMPLETE YOUR STUDENT(S) FAMILY FILE. You will need to complete to be able to view your child's homeroom teacher the week of August 21st!
Every year HCPSS parents must complete a Family File for each child. HCPSS utilizes Family File for parents/guardians to complete emergency information. Parents/guardians must verify and/or update information for each child, and can do so by logging in to HCPSS Connect PARENT ACCOUNT and selecting the MORE OPTIONS tab on the left and then clicking on Family File.
Once logged in, you will be asked to update or provide the following information:
Again, it is imperative that you complete the Family File in order to receive the name of your child's teacher for the upcoming school year.
