All H-F High School student-athletes and their families now have access to an HONEST GAME account. Honest Game empowers student-athletes with the expertise and confidence needed to navigate NCAA and NAIA academic eligibility. Regardless of a student's post-secondary pathway, the Honest Game platform provides students with real-time status updates and harnesses a student-athlete's passion for sports to fuel their motivation for learning.

 

Beginning freshman year, each student-athlete will receive an online individualized College Athletic Report on Eligibility (CARE), which transforms the student-athlete's transcript into a personal plan, including strategic individualized guidance and short-term goals to achieve and maintain academic eligibility. For more information on this new program at H-F, contact Post-Secondary Counselors: Kevin Coy at 708 335-5614 or Brad Kain at 708-335-5615.
