Hawk News 9/5/2025

The first week of September is in the books. We have five full, five-day school weeks ahead. A lot of material will be covered in all classes. The first key to success is not missing school. The second key is doing all of your work and preparing for any tests or projects. The final key is this: if things are not going well, talk to your teacher and set up time to attend tutorials or afterschool academy on Monday or Thursday. The best way to have a great year is to start strong.

This week we celebrate distinction number three out of four: Top 25% in Comparative Academic Growth. This distinction is a direct reflection of the staff and students taking kids where they are and helping them grow. Every year, our ultimate goal is to improve students’ academic knowledge, and this is a clear sign of the amazing work our talented staff of educators performs day in and day out.

We are two Fridays away from IPR 2, which will be the first UIL gain/lose check. So keep working hard, great things will come from your efforts. Go Hawks!

Hendrickson Earns Academic Growth Distinction!

This honor places us in the top 25% of schools in our comparison group of 40, meaning our students are making stronger academic progress than most schools similar to Hendrickson. This recognition is a direct reflection of our students’ commitment to learning and the dedication of our teachers. At Hendrickson, we are proud to celebrate not only achievement but also the meaningful growth and learning that take place every day.

Underclassmen photos will be September 25 & 26 through English class.

Senior pictures have to be taken by CADY Photography. You can take them either at their studio in Cedar Park, or they will be on campus October 7 and November 11, 12. Even if the photo is taken on campus, you have to set up an appointment on their website, here. The free session, they call it Yearbook Only, includes the senior portrait in an outfit of your choice and a cap and gown.

You have the option to take more photos with more outfits, but they do charge a sitting fee for those.

Please email kari.riemer@pfisd.net for any questions about yearbooks or school pictures/senior portraits.

The yearbook order site is open. To order a yearbook, go here. Books are at the lowest price they will be all year.

Senior parents interested in tribute ads, those are also already available for purchase. You can purchase now and turn in the photos and message later--just type will submit later in the text spots.
