Welcome Back, HHS Faculty, Students and Families! 

This email contains several reminders and announcements that you may find helpful as you navigate the first few days of school. After this Back-to-School Edition, you can expect to find the HHS PTO e-Newsletter in your email Inbox early each Saturday morning with announcements, reminders, events, volunteer opportunities and links to a variety of resources. Hopefully, this will aid you in your planning for each upcoming week.  Wishing everyone a smooth start tomorrow!

• Several key Parking/Carpool changes are:  1) Student drop off ONLY in the double carpool lane at the front (main office side) of the school. No drop-offs at the concourse near the gymnasiums, or in the tiered student parking lots.  2) No student parking in the concourse, this is now for faculty only. 3) Students with permits may park in Tiers 1 and 2, as well as in the overflow parking around Samford's track (see diagram link). There is also limited parking in the 3 small tiered lots across from the loading dock on the west side of campus: upper lot for delayed-start Seniors, middle lot for students with permits, lower lot for faculty. 4) Student drivers leaving campus in the afternoons will be required to exit the Armory Road (east) side of the campus.
