Welcome Class of 2029 – Online Registration Now Open!
Dear Grove Parents and Guardians,
Welcome to E.W. Grove Freshman Academy and the Class of 2029! We’re excited to have your family joining us this year. Ninth grade is a big step, and our team is here to support your student every step of the way.
This year is especially significant, as the Class of 2029 will be the first freshman class to return to the Henry County High School campus in many years. While Grove will continue to operate as its own school, we are proud to be housed alongside HCHS, creating more opportunities for alignment, access, and a unified experience for all our students.
You’ll receive regular email communication from me throughout the school year. These updates will include reminders, announcements, upcoming events, and helpful information to keep you connected. Please make sure we have a working email address on file for your household. If you know someone who isn’t receiving our emails, encourage them to reach out so we can get them added to the list.
We also post updates, announcements, and campus highlights on our E.W. Grove Facebook page. Be sure to follow us there and feel free to share it with friends or family who want to stay in the loop!
📌 Online Registration Now Open
Online registration for the 2025–2026 school year opened today, July 1st. This process replaces the traditional back-to-school paperwork and allows families to update contact information, emergency contacts, medical alerts, and electronically sign all beginning-of-year forms.
🔴 Please note: This is not the same as course selection and must be completed before your student can receive their schedule at Open House.
How to Get Started:
Click on “Online Registration for Current or Returning Student” and read through the instructions.
Login to your existing ParentVue account and complete the registration process. If you do not have an existing account, you will need to reach out to our office (731-642-5232), or email David Kibbler (kibblerd@henryk12.net) with your student’s full name and school of enrollment for an activation key.
🔹 All students registering for 9th Grade will be enrolled at E.W. Grove School, not Henry County High School.
🔹 All incoming 9th-grade students from Dorothy and Noble Harrelson, Henry Elementary, Lakewood, and W.O. Inman are considered current students for registration purposes.
If you need access to a computer or support with the process, our office is open Monday–Thursday, 8:00–3:00, and Fridays from 8:00–1:00, with the exception of July 4th. We’ll be glad to help.
