Asslamo-Alaikom HDIS Parents,
This is to inform all that we will continue to dismiss school earlier on Fridays. The dismissal time for every Friday will be 2:15 pm. This decision is based on parent’s request, they can now pick up their children from school immediately after Jumma prayer.
A reminder that child/children have to be picked up within the time frame of 15 minutes before and after school to avoid the charges. Please arrange to pick up your child/children on 3:15-3:30 Monday to Thursday and from 2:15-2:30 pm on Fridays to avoid late fees.

This is a reminder that Friday, March 11th is the last day before the March break. Students will be back in school on Monday, the 21st of March 2022 from the March break. Mask will still be the requirement for all the students and staff members which will be removed later in April Insha’Allah. Parents will not be required to show the daily screening starting 21st March 2022 but are encouraged to do so for the sake of safer learning community. Families are requested to integrate appropriate hand hygiene and respiratory etiquette at home and advise children to practice the same at school. We do hope that families follow the public Health guidelines if traveling during this break time and upon return closely monitor for signs and symptoms.
Together we can establish a better and safer learning community. We thank all parents for their continued support during the past challenging time. May Allah reward you greatly!
We hope that HDIS Families enjoy the March break.
