Dear Parents,
We have recently made updates to the Discipline section of OnCourse Connect. All infractions entered prior to today, Thursday, January 25, 2018, at 4:00pm will be counted toward the “Multiple Infractions S1”, for semester 1. The count will officially start over for “Multiple Infractions S2” at 4:00pm today. In addition, the Missing Assignment(s) will now state “Missing Assignment(s) S2” for any missing assignments starting tomorrow, Friday, January 26, 2018. Teachers now also have the ability to issue “Mandatory Office Hours” as a consequence for any missing assignments. It is the student’s responsibility to attend office hours on the appropriate date.
The Discipline tab is now visible in OnCourse Connect. If you have any questions, please contact the teacher or Dean Estrada.
Thank you!

FREE FOOD ON SATURDAY!!! CRC Global Solutions is providing two 18-wheeler trucks filled with FREE cold/frozen foods at 10:00 A.M. tomorrow at Divine Mercy Church located at 4337 Sal Lentini Pkwy, Kenner, LA 70065. Drive on up and volunteers will put the food right into your vehicle!! Tell your family, friends and neighbors! Spread the word! First come, first serve!
CRC Global Solutions has become a wonderful supporter of our school and community. They are a worldwide company that helps grow other companies. CRC has a partnership with local grocery stores. These stores often have extra food on hand and no place to store it, so they donate it to CRC who, through their charitable program, "We care, We Share", distributes it to the community. They would like to invite all KDHSA families to this distribution event. This will be a carpool line event where all attendees will remain in their vehicles in a designated line. Volunteers will be present to direct traffic and to deliver food items to each vehicle as it arrives at the distribution point. If you have any questions, please contact Michelle Duplantier, Parent Liaison, at michelle.duplantier@discoveryhsf.org or (504) 814-9822.
