Good afternoon, Heritage Families, 

This Thursday, September 5th, is our Fall Semester Meet the Teacher Night.  This is your opportunity to meet face to face with your child’s teachers and learn more about the courses they are taking this semester.  Doors open at 5:45pm.  Families will report to homeroom at 6pm to receive their student’s schedule.  View schedule here. 

Course correction requests have ended, and we are now focusing on getting students settled.  We invite you to aid your students in transitioning to the new semester by considering a success plan and how to balance their time well.  Partner with your student’s teachers and counselor as needed.

Finally, I am in the process of meeting with district representatives and other agency officials who were present and part of the evacuation and dismissal decision-making process.  I will be advocating to improve logistics and support should we be put in such a situation in the future.  While none of us wants this to happen, we all want such an event to go more smoothly. Once that meeting has been completed, I anticipate being able to share more information with you.

I look forward to seeing you at Open House on Thursday.   Weekly Messages to families will begin this Friday.

Sincerely, 

Jo Ellen Newhouse
