We are aware of the snow in Hesperia and the surrounding areas. Students are safely in class, all schools are currently open and will continue under their normal bell schedules; however, we are working to help keep students indoors as much as possible. The weather service predictions are that the snow will clear at midday. We will continue to monitor the situation and road conditions and respond accordingly. If any changes are made we will communicate those changes to the community. In the absence of any further announcements, schools will remain open and dismiss at their normal times. We ask parents to plan for extra time when picking students up and to be as patient as possible as we all deal with the winter weather.

Miss Nicolai’s 3rd graders were doing an incredible job of practicing their public speaking skills this afternoon! We can’t wait to see them in action during their upcoming #American Symbols Museum! #CarmelCougars #YouAreALeader #IMPACTtheFutureHUSD

Due to the current weather conditions and the incoming storm, we are going to reschedule the African American Parent Advisory Committee (AAPAC) meeting on February 23rd to March 16th at 4:30 pm here at the District Office and via live stream.

We can't wait to see you on March 16th!

With the incoming winter storms, this is a great time to remind our Cougar families of what will take place in the event of a school closure: HUSD’s Maintenance & Operations team will assess the road conditions between 2:30am and 4:45am. If road conditions are unsafe, a robocall message will be sent to all families and the closure will be posted on both the Carmel and HUSD websites, Facebook, and Twitter pages. HUSD will also notify local radio stations. This should all take place by 5:30am. Please keep an eye out for additional communication tomorrow and Friday. 🌧️❄️🌬️ #CarmelCougars #YouAreALeader #IMPACTtheFutureHUSD
