Hendrickson High School
Message from Principal Grebb:
Nine school days left in the 1st Nine Weeks. Let’s make these next nine days count by having perfect attendance, staying focused, and finishing strong. Next week, we celebrate Homecoming. This is a great opportunity to have fun, show your school spirit, and celebrate what makes Hawk Nation special. The pride at this school is second to none, so let’s keep that spirit going strong.
We have a Community Pep Rally Wednesday night, and it’s a great chance for students, staff, families, and our community to come together and celebrate Hendrickson. Then it’s Friday night football at the Pfield, followed by the HOCO Dance on Saturday night.
As much energy as we put into showing our school spirit, let’s put that same energy into our academics. Stay focused, get to class, complete your work, and finish the first nine weeks strong.
Let’s go, Hawks!

The FAFSA is OPEN!
THE FAFSA APPLICATION IS OPEN! Although the priority deadline is not until January 15th, 2027 for Texas Colleges, we encourage you to complete the application by October 31st, 2026. Applying by October 31st will assist you in receiving the most aid possible. The State of Texas requires all seniors from a public high school to complete the FAFSA in order to graduate (or opt out). More information can be found on the U.S Department of Education's website about who will assist the student in completing the FAFSA (which parent(s), etc), why it is important, and general tips. Please make sure to complete the 2027-2028 FAFSA (not the 2026-2027), as this is the year you will begin college. Once completed, the student will need to send me proof of completion. We ask that you upload the proof directly into Schoolinks. If you are unable to upload proof in Schoolinks, this can be done by sending a screenshot of the congratulations page or forwarding the confirmation email. The 2026–27 TASFA is not open yet. The TASFA (Texas Application for State Financial Aid) is for Texas students who are not eligible to complete the FAFSA and are seeking state financial aid.
Need support? Students will have access to the CCC to receive support to complete their side of FAFSA. IF needed. Parents can schedule individual appointments for help. Please reach out to Mrs. Spradlin to schedule.
Texas College Free Application Week- Apply Texas Opportunity
During the new Free Texas College Week (October 12–18, 2026), students can submit applications to Texas colleges using ApplyTexas www.applytexas.org at no cost. This is a great chance to explore college options and submit applications if you haven’t yet.
Recommendation: If financially possible, we highly encourage students to complete their college applications earlier through Common App www.commonapp.org. Applying early can give you more time to explore scholarships, financial aid, and ensure everything is submitted on time.
*Students who qualify for free or reduced lunch can receive a waiver for college application fees, so they don’t need to wait for Free Texas College Week to apply.
