Hello Mighty Hawk Parents,

We have had a great start to students bringing in their own devices, ​and almost all the students on campus now bring their own school-​issued devices on a daily basis. Here are a few key things we need ​support from our parents on. Remind students to charge their devices ​each night from the port located on the case and not on the iPad itself. ​This way, students are charging both their iPads and their keyboards. ​Secondly, remind your students that they must be logged in with their ​HCISD student credentials and not their school credentials. We are ​able to see which students are not logged into the proper Apple ​credentials and will need to call in these students to get this corrected.

I also wanted to let parents know that our teachers were just trained ​on the best practices surrounding using Apple devices directly from ​Apple. And as such, our teachers will be rolling out “Apple Classroom” ​to all our students this week. We ask that all students participate in ​Apple Classroom as it is the best way to keep them learning ​collaboratively and using the most modern practices. With this, we are ​able to monitor students’ activity on the device, and it is imperative ​that all students support the teachers in making this a reality.

Bring your fully charged device ​to school daily. The cost to rent ​a device is $2 for a day or you ​can turn in your phone. Please ​ask the librarian if you would like ​to speak to an administrator if yo​u have concerns about the fee​.

Dear Parents/Guardians,

If your child is scheduled to participate in any school testing ​days this year and receive accommodations under their ​Special Education or 504 plan, please submit an ​Accommodation Request Form to the counseling ​department. This form authorizes the release of confidential ​information to the campus, which allows us to submit the ​necessary accommodation request to College Board.

Please note: requests submitted after the deadline may not be ​processed by College Board.

Accommodation Request Forms can be obtained by ​clicking here to get started.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this important ​matter.

Our Student Council proudly represented Harlingen South at Boggus this past ​Friday for our “Gold Out” football game against Brownsville Rivera.

Harlingen High School South Student Council Officers were honored to ​attend our first 2024-25 District 16 meeting held at Nikki Rowe High ​School in McAllen Tuesday evening, September 24. The theme for this ​meeting was western wear. Harlingen CISD was represented by Student ​Council officers/members from HHSS, HHS, and CFA. This experience ​greatly benefited our officers as they met and connected with other ​Student Council members from the RGV.

The MACA Officers had a chance to attend the South ​Texas International Film Festival Student Day in ​Edinburg. They met Valente Rodriguez, known for his ​role as “Ernie Cardenas”, in the sitcom “George Lopez” ​show. STXIFF also had several workshops for the ​students to learn about the film industry.
