Dear Parents,
Click
HERE for a weekly update on the Coronavirus from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE). We continue to be proactive here at HFCS with having students wipe down their desks a few times a day. Please help us by encouraging your child(ren) to wash their hands thoroughly (20+ seconds) and keep your child(ren) home if they are sick.
Instructions for completing online re-enrollment went out via email today. Please let us know if you didn't receive an email. You may add siblings at the end of re-enrolling your student. If you chose to pay your $150 deposit online, you may do so at the end of registration. Please call us if you have any questions about this process.

Every Friday during Lent, our school participates in Casual for Charity as a practice of almsgiving. On days designated on the school calendar, students may dress casually (as long as the clothing is appropriate) if they bring in a donation. Please read Page 22 of the Parent/Student Handbook for the dress code for Causal for Charity.
Casual for Charity next Friday, 3/27/2020 will be in support of The House, a shelter for teens.
