Good Evening HHS Families,
This is Mr. Simko, Principal of High School. The purpose of the message is to share with you upcoming events this week.
The month of October is Stomp Out Bullying Month and our student leadership groups are asking that all students wear the color blue on Monday and Tuesday in support of Worldwide Bullying Prevention Day! The theme of the week is to be a leader, emulate kindness, and make friends with someone you currently don’t know at school.
A reminder to senior parents: This Wednesday evening is the first of many options for attending a virtual FAFSA educational night provided by Kent State. The information and zoom links were emailed to Senior Families a couple weeks ago. If you have any questions please contact our school counselors.
Also, A reminder for all students and staff that Friday, October 9 is NEOEA day and there is no school.
Finally, interim reports will be available by this Friday so please keep communicating with your teachers and doing your best to reach your full potential!
Have a great evening and go tigers!

We are aware of Governor Dewine's announcement placing Trumbull County under a red designation. This designation DOES NOT change Howland Local School District's return plan under the hybrid model. We will continue to provide updates as we receive them, but as of now, this red designation DOES NOT impact our district's reopening plans.
Thank you,
Kevin Spicher

We have had several families ask us the same question regarding enrollment into the hybrid learning model. So, we would like to clarify!
If you choose to send your child back to school under the HYBRID learning model, you DO NOT need to fill out a form indicating that choice.
ALL students are assumed to be attending under the hybrid learning model UNLESS they complete the full-time online remote learning survey. The deadline to complete the survey, indicating you are interested in the full-time online remote learning option, is Friday, August 7, 2020.
Once the survey closes, the district will send an important, detailed email to all of families who completed the survey. Families will then have until 11:59 p.m. on Monday, August 10, 2020, to make their final decision regarding full-time online remote learning.
