BEFORE THE FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL

CHECKLIST for Students

  • Check your schedule in HCPSS Connect/Synergy and make note of your 1st period class, teacher name and room number.  

  • If you are a bus rider, use the Bus Locator Tool to determine your bus stop. Write down/take a screenshot of your bus number and keep it in an accessible location. 

  • Turn on your HCPSS Chromebook and login. Be sure it is functioning properly. If you need to pick up a Chromebook, details can be found here.

  • Check your hcpss.inst username and password by logging into Canvas. Retrieve username and reset password here.  

  • Bookmark hcpss.me or set it as your homepage. This will make accessing Canvas, G Suite, and other online digital resources fast and easy. 

  • Review the Canvas Orientation Materials for students. 

  • Update your Canvas settings and notification preferences to ensure that you are receiving important information from your teachers. For help, see this guide

  • Adjust your bedtime to ensure that you are getting enough sleep. Moving your bedtime gradually over a few days is usually easier than making a big change at once. For more sleep hygiene tips, see this resource

  • Pack your bag the night before! Bring paper, something to write with, planner/agenda book, a charged Chromebook, headphones and two additional masks. Teachers will share supply lists for each class during the first week of school.
