📚 Arrive on Time, Stay the Whole Time! ⏰ Did you know that being tardy or leaving school early can seriously affect your academic success? Here’s why: ✅ School starts promptly at 8:10 AM. Students enter classrooms at 8:00 AM to get settled and ready to learn. Arriving late disrupts the flow, causing missed instruction time and leaving students scrambling to catch up. ✅ Dismissal is at 2:40 PM. Leaving early means missing the end-of-day lessons, important announcements, and sometimes crucial one-on-one support from teachers. When students miss even a small portion of the school day, it can: 🎓 Lead to learning gaps 📉 Lower performance on tests and assignments 📋 Make it harder to stay organized and on top of classwork 👉 Help set yourself or your child up for success by ensuring they arrive on time and stay the entire day. Every minute counts! Let's make the most of our learning opportunities. 🏫✨ #TimeMatters #EveryMinuteCounts #AcademicSuccess

Thursday, November 21st is picture re-take day. Please let your child's teacher know by Wednesday if you would like your child to take a picture re-take. Once they get a retake, the original photo will no longer be available so we'd really like confirmation before allowing students to get a retake. Additionally, any student who was not enrolled at HES on August 29th and did not have a picture taken, will also get their picture taken on Thursday, November 21st!!
