We strive for our school to be the best place it can be. To help us achieve this, parents/guardians are encouraged to complete the School Climate Survey for Families to share their thoughts on our school’s strong points and possible improvements. Your comments and ideas are welcome. The survey can be submitted through Friday, June 16, 2023. 

If you have children in multiple buildings, please take this survey multiple times – each time thinking about a single building. The survey is anonymous and will not collect your e-mail address when submitted. This survey should take approximately 10 minutes to complete.

Complete the survey here – thank you in advance for your participation!

Note: This specific survey link is for parents/guardians only. Separate climate surveys for students and staff will be distributed through Schoology and district-wide e-mail.

We are asking parents/guardians to plan ahead for the required health documents and immunizations for the 2023-24 school year. Being prepared allows our Hempfield School District nurses to better serve our students. Parents with students in noncompliance will receive additional personal communication during the summer months.

Click here for more information on the required documents and immunizations. Please pay close attention to the grade levels at which these items are required – particularly initial entrance, kindergarten, Grade 3, Grade 6, Grade 7, Grade 11, and Grade 12.

Now that the 2023-24 school year has ended, it is important to ensure you are signed up for the correct building(s) 5:00 p.m. e-news. Subscribers will receive an e-mail every day at 5:00 p.m. when new information is posted in the “News” section of your child’s school.

If you have a student moving on to a new building, visit the district homepage and select the desired building from the dropdown. On the school site, scroll to the “Subscribe to E-News” section, enter your e-mail address, and click “Subscribe”. You may be asked to approve the subscription in a confirmation e-mail. The district does not have the ability to subscribe individuals.

If you no longer have a student in a particular building, you may unsubscribe from that building’s e-news, if you wish. Simply find the latest 5:00 p.m. e-mail and click “unsubscribe from this list” at the bottom of the message. The district does not have the ability to unsubscribe individuals.

Note: If you have students in more than one building, you will want to subscribe to each building, as each building shares their own building-specific news in addition to district-wide updates.

We are so excited to welcome incoming 7th graders to Centerville and Landisville Middle Schools next year! Research shows the benefits of being immersed in reading, which also helps with students’ writing skills. This summer, we want to encourage all of our students to read!

Hempfield is proud to offer books for rising 7th graders to borrow over break. Students are able to work with their current elementary librarian to sign out book(s) to read this summer. This flyer includes all books that are available for student sign-out. Students can return these books to their 7th-grade English teacher at the start of the school year.

Using the books offered on the list above, books signed out from a local library, or any other book of choice, rising 7th graders are invited to participate in the Middle School Summer Reading Challenge. Download the document here and return it to your ELA teacher during the first week of school for a chance to win a gift card! 

Questions can be directed to Mrs. Lauren Lewis, Secondary English Department Coordinator, at lauren_lewis@hempfieldsd.org.

Grade 6 participated in the 3rd annual Olympics. It was the first year that Miss Pipkin's homeroom came in first place – she was very excited!

The Rohrerstown staff is super proud of our RES graduating seniors! It was AWESOME to see the graduates return to the building. Students, staff, and parents lined the sidewalk and halls to cheer on the graduates, give high-fives, and share well wishes!

Congratulations to the Class of 2023!

Mr. Kerr’s students created math games as a culminating math activity. They invited Ms. Lockard's class to play the games. The classes enjoyed playing the games and practicing their math skills!

The HSD Technology Department is collecting iPads for students in grades K-12 this week. Please carefully read the information below.

Grades K, 3, 6, 9, & 12
iPads and chargers are being collected from students currently in grades K, 3, 6, 9, and 12. These iPads and chargers are being replaced over the summer and must be turned in. If you have a student in one of these grades, please know that these devices and chargers are being collected throughout this week.

Students in ESY or summer school do not need to turn in their iPad until the program is completed in August.

• Grade 12 Collection: Monday, May 22 from 7:20 a.m.-3:00 p.m. in PAC Lobby and Tuesday, May 23 from  8:00 a.m.-9:00 a.m. in PAC Lobby

Grades 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8, 10, & 11
Students in these grade levels have the option to turn in their iPad or keep it at home for use this summer. The district will be collecting iPads from students who wish to turn them in for summer storage this week (May 24-May 26). Chargers should remain at home for use next school year and will not be collected if a student is turning in their iPad for the summer. Students who turn in their iPad for the summer will receive the iPad in their new homeroom at the start of the 2023-24 school year.
