Parents and guardians, we will be fully enforcing our cell phone expectations, particularly at the high school level this school year, beginning August 5. As a reminder, we did not allow cell phone use in classrooms last year. This year, we will move to not allow cell phones to be used during school. This is in accordance with Board Policy 6.312, which states, “Middle school students’ cell phones and other electronic devices are to be turned off and not visible upon a student’s arrival to school (upon entering the school building) until the end of the student’s school day. High school students are not permitted to use cell phones during or between classes unless it is for academic purposes, under direct supervision of a classroom teacher.” Thank you for your understanding and support.

Hawkins County teachers kicked off the new school year at the 2024-2025 HCS General Meeting!











We are so excited to have these fantastic teachers join the Hawkins County School District family!! Our new teachers were treated to a delicious Bull Babies breakfast (courtesy of HCEA/Quinn Kersey) to get the New Teacher Orientation started off right. The day was filled with exemplary teachers sharing a wealth of information to help our newest teachers have a successful year. HCS is blessed with the best!

“The Tennessee Department of Health requires all children entering 7th grade to have a
T-dap booster vaccine, Tetanus-Diphtheria and Pertussis. Children entering the 7th grade must show proof of this immunization to be admitted to school in August. If you have not already done so, please make an appointment with your health care provider or local health department for your child’s vaccine. All immunizations must be on the official TN Dept. of Health Certificate. Please turn your documentation into your school.
Children with medical exemptions must provide documentation from their medical provider. Religious exemptions require a signed statement by the parent/guardian that vaccination(s) conflict with their religious tenets or practices.
Thank you.”
