Welcome back, and Happy New Year! I hope you enjoyed a restful and joyful winter break filled with time to recharge, reflect, and connect with loved ones. As we open our doors for the new year, we are excited to welcome you back to Good Hope High School and begin this next chapter together.

The start of a new year is a powerful opportunity for fresh beginnings. It is a time to set new goals, strengthen positive habits, and approach learning with renewed energy and confidence. At Good Hope, we believe deeply in the potential of every student. Each day is a chance to grow academically, socially, and emotionally, and our dedicated teachers and staff are ready to support students every step of the way.

The start of 2026 will bring new learning experiences, engaging projects, and opportunities for students to challenge themselves and discover their strengths. We encourage students to stay curious, ask questions, and take pride in their progress—big or small. Families, your partnership and support continue to be essential to our success, and we are grateful for your ongoing involvement in our school community.

Let us move forward together with optimism, determination, and kindness. By supporting one another and striving for excellence, we can make this semester a meaningful and successful one for all. Welcome back, and here’s to a strong start and a great year ahead!

Warm regards,
Mrs. Jyme Jennings

After a few weeks of winter break, some students can find it challenging to get back on a school schedule. You can help with two very simple things over the weekend.

1. Start today by making sure they get plenty of sleep.
2. Ask your student to prepare ahead have all they need for school ready to go the night before.

Did you know that regular school attendance is one of the most important factors in your child’s academic success? Missing even a few days can add up quickly and impact your child's learning. Help your child succeed by:

• Setting a regular nightly and morning routine.
• Preparing school items the night before to avoid morning rush.
• Scheduling appointments and vacations outside of school hours whenever possible.

Absent reminders:

• Parent notes and doctor notes have to be turned in within 3 days after the absence.
• Only 3 parent notes allowed per semester.
• A parent note only counts for one day.

Please avoid taking extended holiday absences, as they can disrupt your child’s learning and

make it difficult to keep up with their academics. Every day in class builds on the previous one,

so consistent attendance helps your child stay on track academically and socially. Let’s work

together to ensure everyday counts!
