Hawk News 3/21/2025

We are officially in the home stretch the final 9 weeks of school. Now is the time to show up every day and be ready to shine on all of the End of Course and Advanced Placement Exams that will take place in April and May. I hoped everyone had a great break and is ready for the spirt to the finish line. Seniors we only have 67 days until graduation!

Besides teaching academic content at Hendrickson, we pride our work on teaching life skills that students can take with them into the real world. One of those skills is being early or on time. We have reset tardies for the new year, but have noticed that more students than normal are showing up late for class, especially for the start of the day. We will be closely monitoring the list of students who show up late and assign the appropriate consequence. Please help us remind students that being early or on time is a huge life skill.

The Anonymous Alerts is an anti-bullying and safety app reporting system that helps combat bullying and other negative activity in schools by empowering students to speak up. Social and peer pressure are some of the hardest obstacles for students to overcome. Students or parents can submit reports such as bullying, cyber bullying, depression, dating violence, drug or alcohol use, threats against the school, weapons on campus, and more.

The system allows for 1-way or 2-way anonymous encrypted communications between the submitters (students, parents, or community members) and District administration and/or school staff. Users of the system have the option to remain anonymous or reveal their identity when submitting a report.

Are you interested in working for Tesla after graduation?

You can apply for the Tesla Manufacturing Development program and receive valuable training! This is an amazing opportunity that is sure to lead towards invaluable skills, not to mention a rewarding employment position complete with skills training and benefits.

MDP provides high school graduates the opportunity to launch a career at Tesla by participating in a paid 7-week Advanced Manufacturing Program at Austin Community College leading to full-time employment at Tesla. The first cohorts for this program began the Summer of 2024. Twenty-five of HHS Class of ’24 grads participated in this program last year. These students completed courses in Material Handling, DC Circuits, Production Quality, Advanced Manufacturing & Programmable Logic Controllers (PLC) at Austin Community College.
