Shark Families:


We made it! Spring Break is here and it feels like everyone is ready for a little R&R.


When we return, we will hit the ground running. April is Autism Awareness month. On April 10th, we will "Light it up Blue" for Autism. In order to promote awareness, everyone is encouraged to wear blue on that day. It's a great opportunity to promote kindness and acceptance of all, and everyday is a good day to do just that.


Please see below for the spring M-Step testing schedule.


Just a reminder that the week we return from break is a 4 day week - no school for staff and students on Friday, April 7th.

Golf Cart Reminder:

As the weather starts to warm, golf carts start rolling up! One of the great things about this being a neighborhood school is that closeness of community and being able to do things like use your golf cart to pick up your child from school! However, please be sure to follow our guidelines in terms of safe areas to park. Our buses use the courts to park and turn around. It's important that there are no golf carts on the court for the safety of everyone. Please stay on the path and paved area that is off the courts.




Have a safe and restful break!

New Mental Health Resource for Families

We are pleased to share that Huron Valley Schools is offering a new resource to support mental health and wellness. ParentGuidance.org is free to all staff, parents, and families in our district.

ParentGuidance.org is a service developed by licensed therapists that provides trusted and specialized courses, professional support, and a safe community to learn how to support our children and get answers to mental health questions.

HVS is inviting all our families and staff to take part in a Mental Health Night hosted by ParentGuidance.org. This virtual event will inform our families about the online resource and help them understand the ParentGuidance.org tools and resources. The Family Mental Health Night virtual event will be held on Wednesday, March 8 from 8:00pm – 9:00pm. Use this link to register: https://CookCenter.info/March8

This virtual event will be hosted by ParentGuidance.org clinical director, Dr. Kevin Skinner. Dr. Skinner is a Marriage and Family Therapist and will be answering questions from participants.

Our hope is that ParentGuidance.org will give concerned parents an additional place to go for answers to support and help their children struggling with depression, anxiety, self-harm, bullying, grief and family strife, just to name a few, as well as provide tools for forming stronger bonds between parents and their children.

We have flyers to send home with all the details. If you have parents who seem to be struggling or overwhelmed, please remind them of this site where they can get trusted resources. ParentGuidance.org is free and confidential.

Look for this logo on our Health and Wellness page under the For Parents navigation bar on our website www.hvs.org, to learn more about this free service available to our district.
