Homewood-Flossmoor High School Plans All-Remote Learning To Start School Year

Press release from Homewood-Flossmor High School:

At a special meeting of the District 233 Board of Education, held Tuesday, July 21, it was decided that Homewood-Flossmoor Community High School would begin the 2020-21 school year in a remote-learning format. This difficult decision was made with the health and safety of H-F's students, teachers, staff and community members as the top concern, paired with a necessity to maintain H-F's high academic expectations.

Remote learning this fall will look different from remote learning this past spring. H-F staff has planned webinars for our parents/guardians and students to help them prepare for the start of the school year:

H-F PARENT/GUARDIAN WEBINARS (A Zoom link will be sent to the parent/guardian's email address.)

• Tuesday, July 28 @ 7 p.m. — Grades 10-12

• Wednesday, July 29 @ 7 p.m. — Grade 9

H-F STUDENT WEBINARS (A Zoom link will be sent to the student's H-F gmail account, which they will received during Chromebook distribution the week of Aug. 3.)

• Monday, Aug. 10 @ 7 p.m. — Grade 11

• Tuesday, Aug. 11 @ 7 p.m. — Grade 10

• Wednesday, Aug. 12 @ 7 p.m. — Grade 9

• Thursday, Aug. 13 @ 7 p.m. — Grade 12

The first day of remote learning classes for students will be Monday, Aug. 17. For more details — and to read the announcement to parents/guardians and to view the July 21 presentation — visit this webpage:
