What extraordinary times for education. Our teachers have planned rigorous lessons and activities to keep our teenagers engaged and active in their learning. While online learning is a learning curve for everyone, our students are keeping up with their academics and staying engaged in school with online clubs and after school support.<\/p>\n<p>At Patrick Henry, we have a variety of clubs to engage students with common interests. Some of our clubs are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Black Student Union<\/li>\n<li>Red Cross Club<\/li>\n<li>Patriot Younglife Club<\/li>\n<li>Journalism Club<\/li>\n<li>MEChA<\/li>\n<li>Baking Club<\/li>\n<li>Greenpeace Club<\/li>\n<li>Mock Trail Club<\/li>\n<li>Philanthropy Club<\/li>\n<li>Spanish Club<\/li>\n<li>Roller Skate Club<\/li>\n<li>Rubik\u2019s Cube Club<\/li>\n<li>Photography Club<\/li>\n<li>Anime Club<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This is just a handful of clubs that we offer. Along with clubs, we also offer Academic Labs <em>(tutoring sessions)<\/em> for students Tuesdays-Fridays from 2:30-3:30 p.m. Any student can access these Academic Labs to get support from our teachers and students from our Link Crew. Check out the PHHS website for more information.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Reopening plan<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Recently, Superintendent Marten shared Phase 1 reopening plan for schools. Principals were provided a comprehensive process for reopening schools during the Sept. 29 meeting that includes health and safety guidelines, transportation guidelines, multi-step process for identifying students, and learning options available for students. Eligible students will receive additional support beyond online learning to support their needs if they are in grades TK to grade 5. Our elementary school principals will be notifying eligible families within the next few weeks.<\/p>\n<p>It is our hope that additional Phases will be rolled out within the next few months in order to return to in-person learning. As soon as more information becomes available, we will notify our community.<\/p>\n<p>Please remember to visit the Patrick Henry website for up to date information about our school and district at \u2013 patrickhenryhs.net.<\/p>\n<p>En nombre del cuerpo docente de la Escuela Secundaria Patrick Henry, queremos agradecerles por ser nuestro socio en la educaci\u00f3n para que podamos asegurarnos de que todos los estudiantes se grad\u00faen con integridad, prop\u00f3sito y opciones.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Important funding<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At Patrick Henry, we receive over $200,000 of federal funding when parents turn in Free\/Reduced lunch applications.
