To those who responded (on survey or phone)that they need internet:
Fidelity is offering internet only for homes within their service area. We will cover the cost until school is dismissed. If the address we have for you is in their coverage area, expect a phone call from us. 2/5
We understand this technology is new to most of you, and you may be struggling. For all technical issues contact our tech department directly at tech@highlandrebels.org (message 1/5)
In accordance with our 19-20 school calendar, there is no school/AMI tomorrow. Our offices will also be closed. If you need a Chromebook or K-6 supplies, come to central office today 9-2. For now hold on to AMI packets, we will send pickup information at a later date.
We are hopeful we can still have a physical graduation ceremony. Tentatively it is scheduled for 6 pm on Saturday, June 27. These plans are subject to change as we will be following the guidance from the state at the time. We will provide more details closer to the date.
Congratulations to Molly McBryde!! Molly signed a letter of intent to play basketball at Florida College next season.

To use the wifi select HSD Guest as the network. There is no password required.
We have created some places where you can access wifi in our parking lots. In the CES parking lot, it’s in the back by the cafe. At the A. L. Hutson, it’s in the parking lot from where the doors open toward Rebel Dr. We will add the HHS parking lot by next week. We have a wifi map on Facebook. Watch our Facebook Live at 1 pm tomorrow for more details.
Notice: The school Chromebooks we are handing out are still CIPA(Child Internet Protection Act) compliant. We will continue to get notifications about cyber bullying and viewing explicit content. Please use the Chromebooks appropriately.
The Governor just extend the on-site instruction closure through the rest of the school year. The AMI and digital learning will continue through the end of the year.

Here is a link to a video recapping the announcements that have been made over the last week. We have also added supplies for grades 5 & 6. https://youtu.be/wEdlDtSKS2k
Make sure you enter through CES parking lot for pickups this week!
Middle school students- You need to start checking your emails regularly. Your teachers are beginning to send you messages. If you do not have access right now, make sure you start checking when you do have access. Many phones have the ability to check email.
Just for clarification- Today was the last daily meal. There will be no meal delivery tomorrow. Food box pickup will be weekly on Mondays from 11-12. It will begin this Monday (April 6) and be at the same locations we have been using.
As much as we would love to give Chromebooks to all students, that is not possible at this time. We have prepared Chromebooks for those who responded to the survey or their teacher that they did not have a laptop or desktop at home. We cannot take additional requests at this time
MEAL CHANGES
We are transitioning from the daily meals to meal boxes to reduce exposure. Meal boxes will be delivered on Mondays at the same time to the same locations we are currently using. Chromebooks will be available at these locations on Monday as well.
CHROMEBOOKS
If you have responded by survey or told your teacher you need a Chromebook, we have one ready for you! Pick up may be done at the central office. Pickup times are Monday – Thursday 9:00 am - 2:00 pm. All pickups need to be made next week if at all possible.
