Hesperia Community Day School would like to take this opportunity thank our parents for their support during these times of Distance Learning. We will continue to keep you updated via social media and our website with information regarding next year. If your child is planning to attend a Hesperia Unified School District school next year, you do not have to return your chromebook until school resumes in the fall. If your child will not be attending a Hesperia Unified School District school next year or is a senior who recently graduated, then please contact our school office to arrange for a drop off time for your chromebook. Thank you again for your support and we look forward to seeing you soon.

Congratulations to Mojave High School's 2019-2020 Classified Employee of the Year Mrs. Liliana Latorre-Melchor. Thanks for all you do on behalf of the students and staff at Mojave High School and Hesperia Community Day School!

Any new students wishing to enroll at Hesperia Community Day School may email registration staff at HCDSRegistration@hesperiausd.org

Hello HCDS staff, students, and families. We appreciate your patience as we transition to distance learning and will be updating everyone the week after spring break. In the meantime if you need immediate answers please reach out via email to Danny.Polmounter@hesperiausd.org.

Good evening HCDS...In order to be proactive HUSD has decided to close school next week. Since the week after that is spring break, we anticipate that our next day of school will be Monday, March 30th. If anything changes we will be sure to let you know. Have a great evening.

Hello HUSD parents and students. Here is the student calendar for the 2020-2021 school year (next school year). If you would like a hard copy of the calendar or have any other questions please contact the front office at your school.

Hello HCDS Families... In honor of the birth, life and dream of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. we will not have school on Monday 1/20/2020. Have a great 3 day weekend.

Hesperia Community Day School would like to thank all of the Veterans who served our country. We would also like to remind our students and families that in honor of Veterans Day we will not have school on Monday 11/11.

Back to School Night for Community Day School will be on Thursday, August 29th. Please join us for a BBQ at 5:30 and take the opportunity to get to know your student's teachers. We look forward to seeing you.

Hesperia Unified School District is pleased to announce that we will be using the Raptor Visitor Management System in all of our schools as part of our campus safety programs for students and faculty. All visitors, volunteers, and visiting staff will be asked to present a government-issued ID, such as a Driver’s License, state ID, etc. The Raptor system only checks the visitor's name and date of birth for comparison with a national database of registered sex offenders. No other data from the ID is gathered or recorded. The system is not connected to any other database such as the Department of Motor Vehicles, and information is not shared with any outside agency. This implementation will help increase the efficiency in our offices, allowing District-approved volunteers to spend their valuable time in classrooms instead of in the front office. Thank you, in advance, for your support in enhancing safety in our schools. #IMPACTtheFutureHUSD

We'll see you back for our last three days of this school year beginning Tuesday, May 28th!
