Escape Room: Come solve your fellow student's escape room the last week of classes. Sign up for the room you want to solve HERE!

Teachers: We are putting together our classes for the Fall. Thank you to all who are teaching. We are off to a great start! To make it the best fall semester ever, we still need teachers to fill some gaps. If you would like to teach please reach out to classdirector@hche.org.

Finance: Family balances are now past due. If you have not paid your bill, please stop by Guest Services or contact finance at financemanager@hche.org. All balances must be paid prior to requesting a registration appointment for the fall.

Appreciation Week - April 21-22: We set aside a special time each semester to show appreciation to those who serve HCHE so faithfully. Is there a Teacher, Vital Partner, Staff Member, NLC Hospitality Staff member or another parent who has made your time here especially meaningful? Here’s your chance to let them know with a note of thanks, a homemade treat or any “special something.”

Mark your calendars! Beginning April 24th at 8 am online registration appointment requests open in your family portal under the NEWS tab. Be sure to sign in early for the best appointment time. Registration volunteers do not need to request an appointment but will automatically receive an appointment time.

Library: We’re so glad you’ve enjoyed the library this semester! It’s been wonderful to see the books being put to good use.

As we wrap up the semester, this is a friendly reminder that all borrowed books are due back by Wednesday, April 22nd and no later than April 29th.

Thank you for being part of the High Country community, and we hope you’ve discovered some great reads along the way!
