Greetings Fashion Families from your
Principal Daryl Blank.
As you are planning your schedule for
the week I hope you can attend our first Parents Association meeting of the
school year, this Wednesday, September 25 at 6:00 pm in Room 829.
Once again as we begin the school
year, I want to share with you our school goals – our goal is that every member
of the High School of Fashion Industries’ community – students, families and
staff feel cared for and challenged. Our
belief is that people succeed when they feel they are being cared for and
challenged. Our school community feels
strongly that emotions matter at HSFI.
Everything we do at the school will be aligned to these goals.
Thank you to all Fashion Families for
your cooperation with this past Friday’s student walkout highlighting climate
change and the need to address this threat to our planet. We had 425 students participate in the
walkout. We do have a Green Team at the
school that is focused on making sure that our school does our part to take care
of the environment.
The Green Team and all of our student
clubs and activities will be highlighted next Thursday, October 4 during HSFI’s
Club Fair. During students’ lunch periods
they can go to the school lobby to see all the choices for student clubs and
activities where students and staff from those clubs and activities will be
there to provide information and sign up students who are interested in joining
them. All students and families will be
reminded about the Club Fair on many occasions over the next two weeks.
It is critically important that all
HSFI students check their HSFI email & Jupiter Grades everyday. Jupiter Grades is our online grading system. 9th graders should log onto their
HSFI email to get the directions to log onto Jupiter Grades. We will be sending important information out
through both these tools – if students do not check them, they will miss out on
some valuable opportunities and not know what is going on in the school.
I wanted to give all Fashion Families
a heads up that there is no school next Monday and Tuesday due to a religious
holiday.
Thank you!
