With this morning's fog and as we enter into a season of colder weather, it is a great time for a reminder on how decisions about weather-related delays and closings occur for the South Henry School Corporation. Making the call to delay or cancel school can be tricky and often times, it’s difficult to please everyone. Conditions can change by the minute and deadlines loom large. We hope this document outlining our steps might help the South Henry family better understand our decision-making process. Ultimately, the safety of the South Henry family is most important! Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding as we work to make the best decisions for the safety of all of our people.

Reminder! At the start of the pandemic, federal funding was utilized at South Henry to provide internet connectivity assistance in homes to many of our families in the form of either "hot spots" through Verizon Wireless or supplemental Wi-Fi payments through NLBC. This is a reminder that funding for this initiative will expire at the end of September, 2022. "Hot spots" will no longer function and supplemental payments to NLBC will end after September 30th. If home connectivity is an issue for your child after September, please contact your child's principal. Go Titans!

Throughout the 2022-2023 school year, students will have several opportunities to learn from home. These "eLearning Days" are school days and should be treated as such, with students accessing our curriculum virtually. With that said, not all eLearning Days are the same. In order to conduct Professional Development, the South Henry School Corporation has 6 scheduled eLearning Days this school year. On these days, instruction will be asynchronous. This means that students will not be meeting with teachers at scheduled times. Work will be pushed out to students and teachers will be available through correspondence during windows of time during the day to provide assistance to students. On these days, our staff will be learning so that they can better serve our children. Scheduled eElearning Days will take part on the following days: Sept. 21 Oct. 19 Nov. 16 Feb. 15 Mar. 15 Apr. 19 The other type of eLearning Days are unscheduled and occur upon inclement weather or unplanned closures. Students will follow the guidelines at their building in regards to attendance at interactive class meetings and the completion of work. At least 50% of these school days should be synchronous. This means that students will be interacting with teachers and staff members "live" for a significant portion of the school day. We appreciate your help making arrangements for your children in advance. Great things are happening at South Henry!

Work is underway on our baseball diamond field upgrades. Step one…subsurface drainage. We look forward to watching our student athletes compete on a new infield in the spring. Great things are happening at South Henry!
