FEATURED EVENT: Back-to-School 
HSD had a great first week of school! We were thrilled to greet more than 20,000 students and start them on their journey of learning and growth for the 2017-18 school year. We were especially honored to welcome our kindergartners, 7th and 9th graders as they embarked upon new chapters in their K-12 careers, as well as students who are new to our district. We hope all of our students have a fantastic year!
