Dear HWW Students, Families and Community members, 

Thank you to the parents/guardians who were able to attend School Council this past Monday, it was great to connect.  

Our next Wednesday Warrior will be on Wednesday, January 10. 

As we write this final update for December, we want to flag a couple key updates: 

1. Our final exam schedule and FAQs are posted on our school website. This will be reviewed with students in Warrior Connect.

2. Our Course registration process for 2024-2025 has been updated for our 20 and 30 level courses. This does not include IB or K&E programming.

Teachers are well versed in the Program of Studies outcomes required at each course level and make personalized recommendations for the next course based on each student's demonstration of learning.

Data shows us that students who take courses aligned with teacher recommendation are often more successful in the course.

For  2024-2025, course registration at the 20 and 30 level  will be according to teacher recommendation. If a student would like to be programmed outside of the teacher's recommendation, and has the required pre-requisites, there will be a comprehensive process including conversation with teacher, parent/ guardian and admin/guidance team. 

Please note that Semester 1 teachers will be contacting home for further discussion where there will be a recommendation for a change in course sequence. Please review this short information video for further details and reach out to your child's teacher with any questions.

For all of the various holiday celebrations ahead, sending best for rest and restoration to our Warrior Families. Thank you for your partnership with us to support our Warriors for success.

See you in the new year, 

Aileen Smyth 

Principal
