E-SPORTS NEWS-Fightin' Fords 2, Haverford's own student-run Valorant team, has battled their way through both group stages and the following tournament bracket hosted by Pennsylvania Scholastic Esports League (PSEL.) The Fords are at the top of their game and will be competing against the Owen J. Roberts Wildcats Red next Thursday, 05/11. It will likely be a rigorous best-of-5 -- the winner taking home a trophy from the PSEL.

- Message from TECHNOLOGY: Earlier this week, some parents received emails regarding past tech fees that were unpaid. The automated message left out the exact years these unpaid tech fees were from. Most of them were from previous school years, either 19-20, 20-21, or 21-22. This message was only sent to parents of Seniors who had an unpaid tech fee. If you didn't receive this message, it means that you are all up to date with any previous or current tech fees. We will be sending out another email sometime in the next week to those who still owe unpaid tech fees. This email will include the exact school years that the unpaid dues are from and links to where you can pay online for the fees. If you have already contacted the tech department about these fees or have already paid them online, our PowerSchool records have since been updated, and you will not receive any further emails regarding unpaid tech fees. Just as a reminder, these annual tech fees are mandatory if you are using one of the school-issued Chromebooks each year. They must be paid in full in order to graduate. However, if your student is a senior but was not enrolled in the hs all four years, you are only responsible for the tech fee for the years they were enrolled in the high school. Thank you for your patience with this matter, and have a great weekend.

Club News
Not all volunteer opportunities fall under community service; Some volunteer opportunities fall under school activities, not community service. For consideration for the National Honor Society, community service must benefit members of the community, not just your immediate family, your neighbors, another school club, or your sports team. For example: Participating in a carwash to raise money for your sports team is NOT community service; Raking your elderly neighbor's leaves is NOT community service.

2nd Semester began with a flurry of activity. We started the first Homeroom of the 2nd Semester on lockdown. The cooperation and feedback from students, staff, and parents allowed us to get the correct story to families quickly and safely and follow all of our protocols and training. There was a false news report about a gun circulating on the Internet. The report looked real but was not. This untrue story confuses the information that is sent to HHS families. Please keep in touch with us if you hear any concerning information and are unsure if it is true. Again, we thank everyone for their cooperation.
-
The classes for the Second Semester started extremely well. The level of engagement was extremely high by the students!
-
Winter activities and athletics are going very well. We are gearing up for playoffs, concerts, plays, and more. Jazz Night is this evening. It is always a wonderful evening! The cheerleaders came in 3rd in the State of PA at the State Championships in Hershey last weekend. The Fords continue to do great things at school, in extracurricular activities, and in their jobs in the community!

Keystone Week #1 went well! Look for Keystone Week #2 in May! Thank you for handling all the schedule changes well. Check out the dance schedule below in your planning for the remainder of the year.

Please check out the remainder of the January schedule below. Dr. Martin Luther King, JR Day is this Monday. Here are five quick facts.
- King's Birth Name Was Michael, Not Martin. After his fathers trip to Germany, and learning about Martin Luther, his father changed his own and his son’s name.
- King Entered College At the Age of 15. He was such a gifted student that he skipped grades 9th and 12th before enrolling in 1944 at Morehouse College.
- He received his Doctorate in Systematic Theology after earning a divinity degree from Pennsylvania’s Crozer Theological Seminary, located in Chester, PA.
- When King was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964, at the time he was the youngest Peace Prize winner ever, at the age of 35.
- King was virtually unknown when he was named as spokesman for the Montgomery Bus Boycott in 1955. There were concerns that some rivalries within the movement could present problems, and King was selected as a bipartisan leader.

The classes I visited this week were stellar! Our Concert was excellent! Our athletics teams are tearing up their perspective leagues! Some of our clubs went on field trips! The students are focused, engaged, and working well with one another. Encourage your student to have one more week of focus and determination before the winter break!
-
See The Counselor's Message below about PSAT results. The PSAT scale is from 320-1520. So, sometimes, students and parents think they scored lower than they did. The Fords did well! The more you practice, the better you will do! (I think Allen Iverson said that).
- 8th Grade Parent Visitation Night is Monday, December 19th. We are getting prepared for the Class of 2027! But first, we have to get ready for the beginning of 2023 for our Seniors! We started the Class of 2023 Section below. Just over six months until graduation.

- It was a week of highs and lows at HHS. We're looking forward to the Homecoming Dance this evening. The Homecoming Festivities, Athlete Signing Day, and Job Fair for 11th and 12th Graders were highlights of the week.

Ways to Stand Out at a Job Fair

3) HHS Parents…Let’s have a Blast!! HHS Blast Volunteer survey
Hi everyone! We spoke briefly about the Haverford Blast at Back to School Night last week. For those of you not able to attend and for the parents of underclassmen, the Blast is a post-prom party for all of our seniors and their guests. All seniors are welcome to come whether they attend the prom or not. What is the Blast? Well, in short, it’s a safe, but very fun experience for the kids that includes various activities, games, food, great prizes and some really amazing decorations! However, don’t take it from me. Watch this short video and hear about the Blast and its impact from the students themselves.
The Blast has been around for years and we want to keep it going for years to come. However, we need the help of all our parents, not just the seniors! If you’re thinking “I can’t help, I don’t know how to build anything” or “I’m not very creative, what will I do?”, trust me, we have a job for everyone! As you will come to see, we have jobs ranging from planning and construction to designing and chaperoning. We could even use some poker and black jack dealers. If you’re interested in volunteering, please complete the HHS Blast Volunteer survey by Monday, October 10th. Once we have our list of volunteers, we’ll hold an informational meeting at the school to provide additional details.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Anthony DeVice (Director-HHS Blast) at ant0219@comcast.net or 610-209-2543. Please consider helping out! Thank you!

4) HHS Parents…Let’s have a Blast!! HHS Blast Volunteer survey
Hi everyone! We spoke briefly about the Haverford Blast at Back to School Night last week. For those of you not able to attend and for the parents of underclassmen, the Blast is a post-prom party for all of our seniors and their guests. All seniors are welcome to come whether they attend the prom or not. What is the Blast? Well, in short, it’s a safe, but very fun experience for the kids that includes various activities, games, food, great prizes and some really amazing decorations! However, don’t take it from me. Watch this short video and hear about the Blast and its impact from the students themselves.
The Blast has been around for years and we want to keep it going for years to come. However, we need the help of all our parents, not just the seniors! If you’re thinking “I can’t help, I don’t know how to build anything” or “I’m not very creative, what will I do?”, trust me, we have a job for everyone! As you will come to see, we have jobs ranging from planning and construction to designing and chaperoning. We could even use some poker and black jack dealers. If you’re interested in volunteering, please complete the HHS Blast Volunteer survey by Monday, October 10th. Once we have our list of volunteers, we’ll hold an informational meeting at the school to provide additional details.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to Anthony DeVice (Director-HHS Blast) at ant0219@comcast.net or 610-209-2543. Please consider helping out! Thank you!

Start of the School Year 09/02/22
Haverford Community,
- Schedules come out this evening! They will be sent to students and parents. They will have teacher names and room numbers. We can print you out a hard copy on the 1st day of school upon your arrival in the main office if you like a hard copy.
As per our course selection guide and process, we do not make schedule adjustments based on teacher requests or lunch requests. Our schedule is made to give students the courses they selected in the spring to the best of our ability. If there are any schedule changes or questions, students should stop into the counseling office on Tuesday, September 6th, or email their counselors. Counselors return on Tuesday. Also, if you would like to switch from a study hall to a class, please email your counselor.
- We start the first day of class with all students reporting to 1st Block and then a 34-minute extended homeroom after 1st Block. All students should arrive at HHS by 7:25 each day. All students must be in their class by 7:30 each day. The traffic is more congested on Mill Road between 7:15 and 7:45 daily than on the Schuylkill Expressway at rush hour!
- Lunches are always a worry for students and parents. We work to ensure all students have a seat at lunch and eat their lunch on Day 1. It does take time for everyone to find a seat. The teachers understand that students might come late to class after lunch if they need additional time to finish. Students have the flexibility to move seats from day to day. Students who want a quieter lunch can eat in the library with a pass that an adult will give them on the 1st Day in the cafeteria. There will be many adults to supervise lunch daily and assist students in finding a place to eat lunch. If your student texts you that there are no seats, please text the back to go see the nearest adult in the cafeteria.
