Principal’s Bison Bulletin for January 26 – New Semester!

Good evening!  This is Principal Hettenbach from High Point Central High School with a message from the Boulevard.

Gentle reminder that there is no school on Monday. The new semester for students starts on Tuesday.

With that being said, we don’t know what this current weather will cause for Tuesday’s 1st day of the semester. Therefore, there are two plans to be prepared.

Plan 1 – we go to school as normal. We will report to our OLD 1st block class for our new semester’s schedule. If we are out an extended period, reporting to our 1st semester 1st block class will occur regardless.

Then, there is Plan 2. This is if weather is not permitting us to report to school on Tuesday and we need to access live instruction if power permits. Your assigned teachers should have e-mailed your GCS student e-mail accounts with directions. In the meantime, we have resources for food below, along with a possible limited service bus transportation plan if GCS opens up, but can not access all addresses.

We will stay in touch via social media and through the all call system as we navigate through the weather.

The electronics law is in effect as of January 1st.

Seniors and Early Grads should have ordered their caps and gowns. Please contact the front office at school with any questions if you have not and are unsure what to do.

I challenge everyone to be involved in their student’s academic progress. Please take a moment to create a Parent Assist account through Infinite Campus to monitor daily progress of your student.

Here is helpful information to assist all parents in getting a campus parent account. Here is another way as well. If you are still experiencing difficulty, please call the school. You can also download their app on an Iphone, IPad or Droid that looks like:

The Learning Hub is in session on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 4:30-6:00. The program offers flexible opportunities for students to receive academic and social-emotional supports, tutoring, and enrichment outside regular school hours. Learning Hubs will take place in the Media Center. • Students need to bring their ID cards • Transportation and food provided.

Parents/Guardians, as a gentle reminder, in order for a student to be checked out, he or she MUST be in Infinite Campus under contacts to do so. They also must have a valid ID. This is for the safety of your student. If you find an error, let’s work together to fix that issue so everything can run safely and smoothly.

Please link your Harris Teeter Vic card to High Point Central. Our number is 1084. LINKS= Dollars for HPC! The higher the link count the higher the earnings for HPC. You can link your card in the store by asking customer service or go to https://buff.ly/3OQ7V1w.
