The HSSD is working to provide FREE Wifi access to all students who do not already have it available. - Connect at Home: If your family does not already have access to the Internet, the HSSD is installing FREE Wifi devices at the homes of students during the AMI period. E-mail your teacher or principal as soon as possible to have this installation arranged. -Connect in School Parking Lots: At all six HSSD school campus parking lots, vehicles may park and allow students to access district Wifi on district devices (which automatically connect) or personal devices. Please keep all students and family members inside vehicles while accessing Wifi at these locations.

Schools will remain closed for onsite instruction through April 17. While more details are yet to come, HSSD families can find information here about how we will continue to provide education, meals, and as many school services as possible during the extended AMI period, including plans to provide all families with Internet access and technology devices, meals at breakfast and lunch, special services and support from school educators, administrators, and counselors, and more.

Our HSJA students in Jobs for America’s Graduates (JAG) classes have worked over a series of weeks to learn the skills necessary for designing, planning/budgeting, and preparing healthy meals. JAG Facilitator Mrs. Goodman invited the new Chartwells Mobile Teaching Cart to her classes, so that students could be part of a hands-on demonstration in healthy meal preparation. Today and Monday, students are shopping with a $25 budget at the Albert Pike WalMart, and will purchase items to take home with them and prepare a meal for their families.

Our Trojan Family, community partners at the Hot Springs Chamber of Commerce, and a crowd of students and area families joined us on February 27 for a Ribbon-Cutting and Opening Ceremony for the new HSSD Indoor Practice Facility and Trojan Baseball/Softball Complex! The Indoor Practice Facility is a spacious, state-of-the-art multi-purpose Indoor sports complex, one that HSSD leaders hope can be utilized by our own students across programs and clubs, and by the entire community. The Trojan Baseball/Softball Complex is equally outstanding, and also serves as the home field for the National Park College Nighthawks teams.

The Trojans Youth Baseball Association has opened season registration to HSSD boys in grades 1-8. Find details and registration forms here.
