Herndon HS Curriculum Night for rising 9th Graders

Save the date! Curriculum Night will be held on Thursday, January 9th beginning at 6:30pm on Main Street at Herndon High School. This is an opportunity for students and parents to learn about the different classes by meeting teachers in that specific subject area. While the focus is for rising ninth grade students, all families are welcome! At 6:00pm, there will be a presentation in the auditorium regarding advanced academics and Standards Based Grading.
