3/29/22 – I am curious as to why the library enforces a seating policy extremely arbitrarily which prevents many students from receiving valuable peer tutoring, this is NOT a good learning environment. – Student

March 29th, 2022 by lindsay.valentiA. There has been some interest and Mr. Davidson in the HSE Library has been meeting with students. If you are interested, please see Mr. Davidson to get involved.
3/29/22 – I heard that there are “furries” at the school and litter boxes in the nurse’s office? I am assuming it is a rumor, but I was just curious. Thanks for your help. – Parent
March 29th, 2022 by lindsay.valentiA. This is not true.
3/29/22 – Hi, this is just a friendly request. In the high school when a student is cvl and there is a sub, it is typical for the.google meet not to be opened by the sub. I understand this and don’t raise an issue with it. However, some teachers don’t post a note on Google to let the CVL students know the teacher won’t be in and that there is no google meet. This leaves the conscientious student to keep trying to enter the meet for a long time in case a teacher is just late opening the meet, which happens sometimes too. My friendly request is this – can there be a better, reliable system in place so cvl students know there is a sub and therefore there is no google meet so a student doesn’t have to just keep trying to get into a class that isn’t even going to be opened? It’s really frustrating for a student. Thanks. – Parent

3/25/22 – What happened to egg sandwiches at breakfast? – Student
March 25th, 2022 by lindsay.valentiA. Unfortunately, we are experiencing a supply chain shortage which sadly means “Shenwiches” are out of stock as of right now, but will be back soon.

March 25th, 2022 by lindsay.valentiA. The district’s policy ( https://docs.google.com/document/d/1NGH8mKSROE-UKt6789FaJ8cMyakXEmohs71R9clnl0Y/edit?usp=sharing) and regulation (https://docs.google.com/document/d/12od39J7MDTe0mLHaKuiU_PjJyarVjEi2nXzDczWjG8E/edit?usp=sharing) on use of bathroom and locker room facilities clearly states the full details at all buildings and levels.
3/14/22 – What is the weight average and unweighted average to last year’s valedictorian and salutatorian? – Jing Bourassa, Parent
March 14th, 2022 by lindsay.valentiA. This policy (https://docs.google.com/document/d/1kJkfBHSI8LNqcRmw14_Sq7–0og5qicv-mi_HjIjM98/view) might help address your question. There are always questions about the weighting of grades since the senior year grades are not weighted until the final grades are submitted. This means awards calculations do not weight senior year grades when done in the spring.
3/11/22 – Why did Shen shut down the Republican Club? – Student
March 11th, 2022 by lindsay.valentiA. The Republican Club is not shut down, they are still up and running.
