A letter was sent home on the first day of school which outlines the Hazel Park Board Policies. Click here for a link to the letter. sfoz_3wy4x3tcnqaspkrf-nut5zs/edit?usp=sharing Dropping off and Picking up Students: Parents please do NOT drop students off or pick up students in the parking lot where the cars are parked in the front of the school or on any of the side streets. Please use the drop off lane in the front of the school.

8 This allows students to be dropped off on the sidewalk and reduces the chances of students getting hit by walking through the lot or by passing cars. The Hazel Park Police Department have been issuing tickets to any drivers that stop, stand or park along the side streets and to people that stand or park in the drop off lane in front of the school. --- Drop off and pick up on this side! Enter from the south side and exit at the north by following the curve. Media Center/Library: Students may utilize our media center to check out books before school beginning at 7:30 a.m. or after school until 3:30 p.m. We are very excited to welcome back Mrs. Darlene Pellow to our media center this year. Please send in BOX TOPS! It is an easy way to earn money for our school! Please bring them in. There will be drop boxes located throughout the school and in the office. FYI: Safety is a priority at HPJH so we do not and will not release a student to anyone during the school day without proper identification even if the staff is familiar with the parent or guardian that is checking a student out. There is a clipboard on the front counter of the office for signing out students. Please note that students will only be released to people listed on the emergency card. We want to make sure ALL our our students are safe! 2017/18 HPJH Calendar
