On By Webmaster Homer High PelsLeave a comment

Thursday, October 11, 2018 will be a half day for students. Buses will run at 12 noon. Parents may pick up report cards between the hours of 1:00 PM and 5:30 PM. There will be a sign in sheet for parents to sign in. You may go and chat with teachers if you’d like, but please remember they cannot speak to you about specifics if other people are in the room. This is a time for you to get general information regarding your child’s classes and his/her expectations as a Homer High School student. If you want a more in depth and more specific conference, please schedule one with the teacher and an administrator.

Mrs. Owens and the Library Club would like to thank all of the students, teachers, administrators, donors, and community supporters who helped to make this school year so successful.  From the Scholastic Book Fair in the fall to the Social Studies and Science Fairs in the spring, we have had a busy and productive year.  We have added more than one hundred new books to the library collection and continued our literacy initiatives with Career Projects and the Volunteer Reader Program.  We also want to say a special “thank you” to donors such as The Lisa Libraries of New York, The Historic New Orleans Collection, Claiborne Parish Farm Bureau, Adoptaclassroom.org, and the White-Reinhardt Foundation for sponsoring many of our programs this year.
