School Supply Lists  

Basic school supplies are provided and notes will come home occasionally for any extra supplies that your child may need throughout the year.

Students should bring a backpack for carrying books and agendas back and forth to home and have an outdoor set of shoes and a safe indoor set for use in the gym.

School Calendar

We are a school that follows the traditional calendar. View our School Calendar.

For system calendars, please visit the CBE System Calendar page.

Noon Supervision

This service is available to all Grade 1 – 6 students attending Huntington Hills School as a user pay service. 

Students in Grade 1-6 who wish to stay at school for lunch, are required to pay the noon supervision service fee. For any student only needing to use the noon supervision service occasionally, a drop-in fee of $5.00 per day per student will apply.

Registration and fees as well as other information can be found on our Noon Supervision page.

Assigned Teachers

As teacher staffing is ongoing in June and into the summer, we don’t have a complete list of teachers and classrooms until school starts.  Students will meet on the playground compound on Wednesday, Sept. 1, 2021 and their assigned teacher will call students in class by class.  If it is raining, we will meet everyone in the gym.

Kindergarten 

We will be doing a staggered entry as described during our orientation evening. Your child will receive a letter from the Kindergarten teacher informing you of the time your child will be coming to Kindergarten . 

This staggered entry allows the teacher to begin the building of routines and expectations with a smaller group of students prior to the full class coming together on Friday, Sept. 3, 2021. Please meet your teacher at the northwest student entrance.

Registration Information

Please visit our How to Register page for all registration details and forms.

Our school office opens at 10:00 AM on Thursday, Aug. 26, 2021 for registration.

​​​Yellow School Bus Tra​nsportation

Yellow school bus routes for the 2021-22 school year are created o​ver the summer and based on the addresses submitted before the pre-registration deadline in June. Transportation continues to accept registrations after the deadline; however, students are added to the closest existing stop with available space. Processing times could be up to six weeks at the beginning of the school year due to volume.

More information about 2021-22 transportation service levels and proposed fees are posted on the CBE website.

Your bus stop location and time will be available in your MyCBE / PowerSchool account by mid-August.

Conditional riders can also register using MyCBE / PowerSchool. Applications will be considered after eligible riders registrations have been processed.

Learn more about transportation on the CBE website.
