	Parents

Welcome to the 2009-2010 school year. Our staff and administration are excited about the coming year. To assure a smooth opening of school for new and returning students, I am sharing the following information for the benefit of parents and students.

First Day of School

The first day of school for all students is Wednesday, September 9, at 7:50 AM. Students are to report directly to the gymnasium for a brief orientation and then to homeroom to receive their official class schedules. Copies of homeroom assignments will be posted throughout the building. Students will attend a full day of school.

During homeroom on the first day of school, the following business will be conducted:

-Students will receive their schedule of classes.

-Picture Day information and temporary student I.D. handed out.

-Insurance information handed out.

-Information regarding the Student Handbook that is online will be reviewed.

Class Schedule

The school day at Hastings High School is 7:50 AM to 3:15 PM.

The class schedule at Hastings High School is a traditional six period day with seminar two days a week during the afternoon.

Students attend all six class periods on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday for 61 minutes of instruction. On Tuesday and Thursday students attend six class periods for 51 minutes each and have a seminar period for 55 minutes.

Seminar period allows students an opportunity to study, do their homework, make up work or tests, or see a teacher for additional help. All students are assigned a seminar and must report to that room for attendance. If a student would like to leave their seminar room to see a teacher or counselor, they may do this by obtaining a pass prior to the start of the seminar period.

Lunch is scheduled during the 4^th hour of the day. Students who have 4^th hour class on the 1^st floor of the building have "A" lunch and students who have 4^th hour class on the 2^nd floor have "B" lunch. (There are a few exceptions to balance the number of students in each lunch.)

I have included a time schedule for you to review. This schedule is also online in our Student Handbook.

	Pinnacle Internet Viewer

To access your student's information regarding grades, attendance, and discipline, the Hastings Areas School System uses a software package called Pinnacle Internet Viewer. Many of you are aware of this and use it on a daily basis. I would encourage you to view your student's progress on a regular basis using this software. Teachers will update grades weekly, and discipline and attendance is updated daily. You student's ID number and password has not changed from last year, including incoming freshmen. If you have misplaced this information please contact our office at 948-4409, and we will assist you. You can get to the Pinnacle Internet Viewer by going to our web site at hassk12.org, Use the Parent Links drop down menu at the top of the page, and go to Pinnacle Internet Viewer. You will be asked to enter your student's ID number and password.
