| Life Ready Learning Update Starting Quarter 2, Hermitage High School will transition to the new Life Ready Learning reporting form, allowing students to log a wider range of real-world experiences — from community service to leadership, civic engagement, and work-based learning. All previously approved hours still count toward the 80-hour requirement for the HCPS Life Ready Learning Diploma Seal. This shift ensures students are recognized for building the durable skills that matter most beyond the classroom. This new system, which will take effect across HCPS, is similar to the old community service log and diploma seal system, but now better matches the mission of HCPS. You can read more details in this 1-pager and/or this document outlining the new guidelines. |

| Support for Students struggling with substance use At Hermitage High School, the health, wellness and success of our students are the shared responsibility of our young people, their families and our community of caring educators. We recognize the challenges that substance use can bring to our students, and we are committed to educating students on the risks of substance use while also ensuring that anyone who is struggling with substance use has access to resources and treatment support. Our school has a number of evidence-based programs and interventions ranging from classroom lessons to more specific services based on individual student needs. We have a staff member who is dedicated to helping families navigate resources and make connections to wraparound services for students struggling with substance use. If you have questions about youth substance use or if you are seeking support for your student, I encourage you to reach out directly to our Tiered Intervention School Counselor, Ms. Annaleigh Broad, at asbroad@henrico.k12.va.us or via her confidential phone line (804) 866-2687.
