Friday, November 18th is SUBSTITUTE EDUCATORS DAY!!
Substitute educators play a vital role in the maintenance and continuity of daily education.
These professional educators provide a critical link in the education of public schoolchildren by serving as a bridge to provide continued quality education to children in the temporary absence of regular classroom educators.
H.E.S. is extremely thankful for the substitute teachers that serve our school!!!
HES would like to say thank you to our school board members for their time & support throughout the school year. Some of our local businesses helped us put together a token of our appreciation! 🐾

Happy American Education Week! Someone once said "it takes a village" and here at H.E.S., we realize just how true that is. From those who arrive early to those who stay late, from the bus driver and classroom teacher to the cafeteria worker and administrative staff, plus countless others, our students are blessed to have YOU!
Parents are a child's FIRST teacher....
According to experts, parents need to take an active and assertive role in their children's education on a daily basis for optimal success at school. Ongoing research shows that parental involvement in schools improves student achievement, reduces absenteeism, and restores confidence among parents in their children's education.
Parental involvement means reading to your children, checking homework every night, limiting television viewing or screen time on school nights, developing a relationship with your child's teacher, and simply asking children about their school day. Whatever the level of involvement, it is important to be consistent in order to make a difference in your children's lives.
THANK YOU to all the parents and guardians leading your child's education. We appreciate you!!
Education is a work of heart and who has a heart bigger than teachers?! THANK YOU to all of the teachers and staff at H.E.S. who continually go above and beyond the call of duty because it comes from your heart! We see you and we appreciate everything you do for your students and your community.
This week American Education Week is November 13-19th. Please take time to reflect on all of the hard work teachers do and the time they put into your child. We wouldn't have any profession without teachers. We want to send our most heartfelt appreciation to our beloved teachers and staff at H.E.S. every day, but especially this week! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU DO for our students at H.E.S.
