Our HES Family Dance hosted by the PTA last week was so much fun! Thank you to the PTA for planning a great evening for us all and thank you to our families for attending. Please continue to consider ways in which you can support the PTA through joining and volunteering.

 

Congratulations to our Odyssey of the Mind Teams led by Ms. Brown and several parent volunteers for a great showing at the competition last weekend! These students put in a great amount of time and effort to show teamwork and problem solving skills and we are so proud of them!

 

Lost and Found

We have moved our lost and found to the front lobby area. We have A LOT of unclaimed sweatshirts and jackets. If you believe your child is missing a clothing item, feel free to stop by school and search our lost and found racks. Please LABEL your child’s belongings to help us return misplaced items to their owners.
