November 2026- It's a GREAT day to be a Hornet!
Principal Message
Hello Hedrick Families,
Thank you to all the families for donating candy for our school celebrations. It was very much appreciated! We enjoyed the treats and some of our students went over to Roosevelt and treated the elementary students during their costume parade.
A reminder, part of our Advisory class is students fill out a Grade Check/Missing Assignment sheet each week. Students should be bringing this home for a signature by a guardian. This helps with weekly communication in regards to how your child is doing in his or her classes.
We are looking forward to meeting with families at the end of November for Student Led Conferences. Your child will be working hard in their Advisory class creating their part of the Student Led Conference.
We are excited to share some upcoming volunteer opportunities at Hedrick, including our sporting events and the Scholastic Book Fair. We would love your support to make these events successful and enjoyable for our students. If you’re interested in volunteering please reach out to our PTSA members.
Thank you for being such an integral part of our Hedrick community! We appreciate your time and effort.
Happy fall! 🌰 🍂
We are creating a Site Council at Hedrick. The group consists of 3 members from each group- certified & classified staff, and parents/guardians. We work together on our School Improvement Plan and the needs of Hedrick as a school community. Please use this link to self nominate or nominate another Hedrick parent/guardian. We will meet quarterly 3:45-4:30. https://forms.gle/H7Eufo5DnaPYkLhu6
We will recognize and induct 73 8th graders November 2nd into the Hedrick Honor Society. These students were selected considering their maintained GPA, 90% attendance, and behavior during their 6th & 7th grade years. The characteristics of leadership, character, scholarship, service, and citizenship are all areas to be recognized in these students.
Attendance Matters - Every Day Counts! Every Day Counts!
Did you know students who miss two days a month, excused or not, are at risk of falling behind academically? Help your child develop strong attendance habits early. Every Day matters! Attendance IS a school wide focus at Hedrick. Please reach out to your child's Advisor or Administration team if you need support or have questions please reach out. If there is a business you know who would like to sponsor Attendance incentives for a month; please reach out!
