•When we return from Christmas break, a phone call and text will be sent to the first two PowerSchool contacts for any student who is absent that day. You should expect to receive that call between 9:20 a.m. and 9:45 a.m.
•Please remember that although absences for exams are counted by semester, the number of absences for truancy is for the entire school year.
o When a student is absent, an excuse must be turned in within 3 days of the student’s return to school.
o Once a student has reached 10 absences, all absences after that will only be excused with a medical or legal excuse.

This morning, students from Phillips High and Hackleburg High came together for a joint Fellowship of Christian Athletes/Students meeting, and the energy was incredible. The message was led by HHS student Daughtry Gober. Seeing students worship, encourage each other, and build friendships across schools was the highlight of the meeting. Proud of our FCA leaders for creating a space where students can grow, connect, and shine.
