What's Up Next?
Happy Labor Day!
I hope that each of you had an opportunity to provide some type of service to someone or some needed attention to your own community, and not to mention a little rest. We have several things happening at HES this week. Please make sure to check out the events listed below.
As we begin to pass out our 1st Nine Week Progress report this Thursday evening, please make sure that you update your contact information, which will be attached to each report. Please return both the signed progress report and the updated information sheet back to your child's teacher. For those parents and guardians that are unable to join us Thursday, we will send home your child's progress report the following Monday, 9/11/23.
Please make sure you are checking your child’s book bag daily for important information that is being sent home from the school. Also, if you were absent any day last week, please submit your child's excuse for their absence. We thank you for your continued support at HES! Let’s have a great week ahead!

Picture Day is Wednesday!
Below is a direct link for our Fall pictures that are scheduled for this Wednesday, September 6. You may order online in advance with a debit or credit card. This is a great way for all to order instead of having to worry about bringing or sending order forms and money on picture day.
Students that will be ordering pictures may dress up for Picture Day. Therefore, those students that have paid for pictures in advance, or will be paying for picutres Wednesday, are welcome to dress appropriately in an outfit of choice. Thank you for your support!
