New PROGRESS REPORTS
We are approximately one-half of the way through Marking Period 1. Please be sure to access the PowerSchool Parent Portal and view current grades to track your student's progress. If you have any questions regarding grades for a particular class, please contact your student's teacher. If you have any difficulty accessing PowerSchool, please contact Ms. Nickell: rnickell@shsd.org
New EARLY DISMISSAL PROCEDURES
If you wish to have your child dismissed early from school, please have him/her bring a note to the Main Office in the morning so that we may issue a pass that will allow him/her to leave class early. This process avoids interruptions to classes and ensures that your student will be waiting for you when you arrive at school. Thank you for your cooperation!
New FINANCIAL AID NIGHT: NOVEMBER 19TH
Financial Aid Night will be held on November 19th at 7:00pm in the PAC. Please join the Guidance Department for an essential presentation by Dorothy Giliard of FASNA - Financial Aid Service and Need Analysis. This presentation will provide an overview of the financial aid process as well as tips for filing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid.

NHS PEER TUTORING PROGRAM
The National Honor Society members offer an in-school tutoring program for any high school students who need extra help in their classes. Students who need extra help will be matched with a NHS member who will meet them once a week during a shared free period. This weekly meeting will continue as long as the student needing help stays in contact with their matched NHS member. If any student is interested in being matched with a tutor, they are to fill out a form that can be found in Guidance or here and bring it to Ms. Murphy (Room B205). Please contact Ms. Murphy (tmurphy@shsd.org ) if you have any further questions."

This Sunday SERVICE LEARNING OPPORTUNITY

The manager of Bernardsville Centre (the shopping center that houses Kings, Burger King, etc.) and the Bernardsville Police have informed BHS that during this past summer they have encountered problems with disruptive and uncooperative high school students at the Centre. The Centre manager notified BHS that they will be installing a new fence and that the cut through from BHS to the Centre will be closed. Students are not permitted to walk through the woods to the Centre. Students are also prohibited from climbing over retaining walls and/or fences to access the Centre. Any senior students who attempt to leave campus through the woods and/or over the retaining wall/fence will have their senior privileges suspended or revoked. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
