HERNDON ALL NIGHT GRAD PARTY
for all HHS Class of 2018 Grads
June 12, 11:30PM - 4:30AM
at the Herndon Community Center
Graduation is just around the corner, which means our students will want
to celebrate - they’ve earned it and we have a BIG (and safe!)
celebration planned just for them.
The
HHS All Night Grad Party
is June 12, 11:30pm - 4:30am. Activities include an
internationally renowned illusionist, casino, large inflatable games and
obstacle courses, airbrush tattoos, photo booth, massages, music,
prizes for everyone and LOTS of food.
Prizes are given out all night long, and those who stay for the entire
evening have a chance to win GRAND PRIZES. Think flat screen TVs, iPads,
gift cards, and so much more!
All HHS graduating seniors should be at this awesome celebration!
Don't wait...
get your ticket today…tickets can be purchased on the web site at www.herndonang.org.
If you have questions, please e-mail hhsang2018@gmail.com.
Please HELP US SPREAD THE WORD so no senior misses the celebration they have earned! If your neighbors and your student’s
friends are not on the “who’s
going” list (found here - http://www.herndonang.org/who-s-going-.html),
please contact them and remind them about this event. Spread the word
to all the seniors on your child’s sports teams and in your clubs. We
need everyone’s help to make sure all of our seniors know about this and
get to attend. Have your son/daughter share
this on their Twitter, FB, Instagram and Snapchat. We need your help
to get the word out to
everyone! Every senior worked hard and deserves this celebration!
SENIOR & UNDERCLASSMEN FINAL EXAM SCHEDULE
The Senior and Underclassmen Final Exam Schedule is available here. Please plan accordingly.
From the Library:
- It’s time for
your students to clear their library accounts! All library materials should
have been returned by Friday, June 1. Students can stop by the library to take
care of any overdue fines or charges for lost books. Debts over $3.00 can also
be handled online through MySchoolBucks.
If you have questions about your student’s account, please email us at hhs_library@fcps.edu.
- If your
student will be returning to Herndon HS in August, and is interested in
checking out books to keep over the summer, we will begin summer checkouts
on June 7. Students whose accounts are clear are welcome to stock
up on books before June 15. These books will be due the first week
students return, by August 31.
- A few ways to keep your family reading this
summer: The Great American Read, sponsored by PBS,
is a wonderful way for students and families to expand your summer reading
lists. Be a part of the nationwide search for America’s favorite novel. Herndon
Fortnightly Library also has fun summer programs geared specifically toward
high school students. You can find information on one of their special teen
activities, the Herndon Teen Library Challenge, here. And
finally, AudiobookSYNC is
a free summer audiobook program from AudioFile Magazine that gives away two
paired audiobook downloads a week. The program is geared toward ages 13 and up.
Get the details on the weekly free downloads here, and read with your ears!
