ATTENTION PARENTS, STAFF AND COMMUNITY!!!
HCS needs your help! This week is Safe Schools Week across Kentucky! Our friends at the Kentucky Center for School Safety are asking students, parents, staff and community members to pledge to keep our students safe.
HCS is currently ranked 6th in the state in the number of pledges received! You can help us move up the list and win the challenge!!!
Please click this link to take an approximately 20-second pledge to keep our students safe while at school: https://kycss.org/safe-schools-week/safety-week-pledge/

We encourage our students to attend school every day, but especially on Tuesday, September 9, 2025! Bragging rights are on the line in our district-wide competition!!! Great attendance that day helps HCS as we compete with other districts in Kentucky.

WELCOME TO HARDIN COUNTY SCHOOLS!!
We are so glad that lots of new families are joining the HCS Family today through open enrollment. We encourag new families and families who have been with us for a while to elect to receive push notifications from your child(rens) school(s). Schools will use the app as part of the communication toolbox. Make today a great day!
We are excited to host our 6th grade students for our annual Operation Middle School on July 30th from 10:00 am-1:00 pm. Doors will open at 9:30 am.
We are in need of a count for lunch; so, it will be extremely helpful if you pre-register using this link: http://bit.ly/3GEHHPr. You can also scan the QR code on the graphic provided.

Here is some important information regarding Open Enrollment:
* Open Enrollment for parents of children enrolling in school for the first time, transferring to another school in the district (except for the natural elementary-to-middle or middle-to-high school transistions) or for those who plan to attend a new school.
* Click this link to learn what info will be needed at open enrollment: https://www.hardin.kyschools.us/parents/student-enrollment-information
* If you cannot come to the school to enroll your child on those two days, everything is OK!! Just call your school and schedule a time to enroll your child or drop by your school the next week!

Parents will need to attend in order to complete the initial Healthy Roster required documentation so that your student can participate.
