A message from
INDIAN HILL HIGH SCHOOL

Dear Indian Hill High School Students and Parents:

Welcome to the 2020-2021 academic school year! As our first day of school is quickly approaching I wanted to start by stating how excited we are here at Indian Hill High School to kick off what will surely be a unique and memorable school year. As we continue to prepare our building in a manner that conforms to safety guidelines as presented by the CDC, Hamilton
County Department of Health and the State Legislature I can assure you that together we will ensure that Indian Hill High School is ready to welcome our Braves on August 27th.

Through a collective effort between our maintenance team, community partners, district administration and our Board of Education we have been working tirelessly to ensure that the environment created here at Indian Hill High School is safe, welcoming and exemplifies the #IHPromise. Although school will look different, the fundamental principles that define education will be held to the standard that Indian Hill Families expect and deserve.

As this year begins I wanted to first say what an honor it is to serve our students, staff, and community members of this amazing district. Indian Hill embodies excellence in all that we do and I know that we will continue to honor our strong traditions, high expectations, innovative methodologies, and most important student centered focus! I know I speak on behalf of the entire staff, in stating how excited we are to see you all soon. These past few months have challenged us all in different ways, but by locking arms we collectively will make progress each day. If there is one thing that the current pandemic has reminded us all, it is the importance of human connection and our collective duty to take care of one another. All of us here at Indian Hill High School have missed our Braves immensely and whether we will soon interact with you in-person or remotely, we are so excited to have a sense of school community back once again.

It is also with great enthusiasm that I have a chance to welcome our newest faculty members to Indian Hill High School: Mr. Casey Abrams (Math), Ms. Julia Kunkel (Math), Ms. Rebecca Plaatje (Long-Term Sub, English) and Mr.

Drew Renner (Assistant Principal). Please give all of these individuals a warm welcome to Indian Hill High School.

To more effectively streamline our methods of communication, we continue to share our "Summer Mailing" completely electronic. You can access the Summer Mailer drive by using the following link. (Be sure to start with the "Important Information" page located at the end of this
letter). Important details regarding our modified Plan-B Block Schedule, Arrival and Dismissal Procedures, Lunch Procedures, Locker Use, Updated Visitor Policy and much more can be viewed within this document. For new families, those that cannot access the electronic mailing or simply prefer a hard-copy, please contact our Counseling Office and we will arrange a time for you to come school and meet you outside to pass it along.

Parents, please remember that our annual registration and form completion can be found within Final Forms. Please login and create an account at your earliest convenience, if needed, and complete the process. This includes your student's contact information, emergency contacts, emergency medical information, allergy information and medical consent. Additionally, as in years past, both students and parents will need to electronically sign-off that they have reviewed the 2020-2021 Student Handbook.

Since moving to an online fee system, students' school fees can be viewed and paid through EZPay. If you prefer to pay with a check, make it payable to 'Indian Hill High School.' School fees need to be posted by September 20th.
Please plan to complete full payment no later than September 30th.

Only Juniors and Seniors will be invited to buy a parking permit for the first two weeks of school. Sophomores may begin buying permits during the third week of school. Students MUST have a parking permit to be able to drive to school. Parking information and forms can be found using the link above and were mailed home with these students this past spring.

Indian Hill High School continues to be ranked among the finest schools in our state and nationwide. As a staff, it will continue to be our goal to provide your children with exceptional educational services to ensure the intellectual development, personal growth, and social responsibility of ALL students. Due to the current pandemic, school may look and feel different, but the core values that make Indian Hill a destination district remain strong! We cannot wait to see our Braves once again.

If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact us or your school counselor.
