  • Important Dates:

    • Progress Reports – February 1

    • End of 3rd Quarter – March 12

    • 4th Quarter Begins – March 15

    • Spring Break is March 29 – April 2 (There is no intercession this year)

  • If you have chosen the in-person option for your student this quarter and they need to be absent from school, please call them in absent to the attendance line.  You may also email our attendance clerk, Kate Burger: kburger@nafcs.org We ask that they log into Google Classroom and get their assignments.  We are discouraging any in-person student from logging in to Google Meet when they are absent from school (unless they are under quarantine).  The rationale behind this is due to safety concerns.  We want to ensure that we have an accurate account of virtual and in-person students each day. In a school of over 1700 students, safety and accurate attendance taking are critically important.  Thank you so much for your cooperation.

  • Please be aware that the New Albany-Floyd County Schools Technology department has options for students and families to receive technical support while on virtual or E-learning days. Your first choice (preferred) is to use our Incident-IQ Help Desk system. Secondly, you can call into our support line:  1) Visit https://nafcs.incidentiq.com/ -if prompted, enter your school Google login information 2) By phone: 812-542-4700 option 1, on school days between 7:30 AM – 3:30 PM -if your call goes to voicemail, please leave a message with your name, school and overview of the issue you are experiencing.  Please do not call your school building directly and ask for tech support. The options above are the best methods to make a request.

  • If the student is in-person at HHMS, have one of their teachers contact Lanny Howard to set up a time to be seen that school day.  There are also paper copies of request forms to explain the situation that are available outside his office.
