Don't forget to seek sponsors (donors) for our annual ROCKnRUN on September 1st! Each student is attempting to raise $60 and the top fundraising student will win a $100 prize! All money is due by August 30th!
Parents /Guardians... please be certain you have enrolled in your student's "Room" for all things communication with teachers, sports, clubs, school administration, nurses, and more! Contact your school if you have questions about being enrolled.
We are in a very special situation at our school as we are in dire need of dependable substitutes. Over the past few years, we have had our substitutes actually be hired into the school system into positions at the high school and our school. If you are willing to be on our preferred sub list and have received the training, please contact Darlene at 602–4000 to be placed on our list for daily calls. There is a training on Thursday at the Watson center if you would like to become a substitute teacher. Our substitutes are part of our team and we depend on them to help us take care of our students. It is a very important job!
Dear Henderson County Schools Parent/Guardians:
Say “hello” to two-way messaging and classroom announcements in the Henderson County app! With the addition of Rooms, our district app keeps getting better.
Parents/guardians, check your email tonight for instructions to sign up and access new features. If you do not get an email by Tuesday morning, it will be largely due to your email address not being correct in the system. If this is the case for you, please kindly and patiently contact your child's school to ensure the school has the correct email address.
Once you have received the email and followed the instructions, you can log on through the Henderson County Schools App. The “Rooms” feature is a button in the bottom right corner of the phone screen. If not, please update your app. “Rooms” can also be accessed via the web at https://id.edurooms.com/. A direct link to this site will be conveniently located on the Henderson County Schools Website.
Your child can do the same as above but they will not receive an invitation email like the parents/guardians. They can now access “Rooms” through the app or their personal Chromebook via the web.
Remember, this is how all teachers, coaches, club sponsors, students, and parent/guardian communication will happen from this point forward. Therefore, it is critical that parents and students are logged into the “Rooms” portal and that notifications are turned on.

2023-2024 Henderson County Schools Full Faculty & Staff Inservice
Over the past several years, the student population at Scotts Hill Elementary has been growing. This has created a major issue on the state highway in front of the school in the afternoons when students are being picked up. In an attempt to reduce the number of cars on the main highway, the leadership team has decided to reverse the flow of traffic. The entrance will now be directly beside the gym and will be one-way traffic into four lanes to allow for more cars to enter the parking lot in the afternoon. That means the exit will now be on the other side of the Tucker insurance building. The dismissal time will be 2:45 and the gates will not be open until around 2:35. The leadership team asks that parents do not attempt to come early and park because the gates will be closed and it creates a security issue when there are so many people inside the campus. There is usually more congestion in the first week or two before the afterschool program starts. Parents are encouraged to wait until 2:50 if they are not pressed for time. There will be a number posted on the sign if you need to enter the campus to pick up children early or a call ahead will also help. The safety of our students and staff is the number one priority for our school system. We appreciate the patience of all parents in this matter, as we are attempting to make things better. The first few days may be some trial and error, but we will do our best to make sure that everyone is picked up timely and safely. Special thanks go out to Trey Davis for his work on this project and Mr. Danny Beecham for green-lighting the project.

Voluntary PreK (VPK) is an income-based program and first priority will go to those families that qualify. Completing the Henderson County PreK application packet does not necessarily guarantee enrollment in the PreK program. Non-income eligible students will NOT be notified until after school has started. Non-income eligible students are placed on a waiting list once all paperwork is complete. Once all qualifying students are placed, non-income eligible students will receive notice informing them of their status after the beginning of school, per the VPK grant guidelines.
Visit our website or app to get 2023-24 supply lists! Remember that all supplies are provided for VPK preK!
