We’re excited to kick off the new school year by talking about Kindness! Our definition of Kindness is acting with understanding, generosity, and care. We believe developing skills around Kindness will help us build a strong foundation for a great year of learning, connecting, and growing together. Check out our family letter for more information about PurposeFull People and some fun ways you can join us in kicking off our most KIND year yet! Watch for monthly newsletters like this that outline the skills we are learning in class and provide fun ideas to grow as a family at home.
Once again parents, we want to welcome you back to HES and we look forward to a great school year together. We want to remind everyone of the attendance policy at HES.
If your child is going to be absent for any reason, you must call the office to report the absence. If you do not call before 12:00 pm, you will receive a phone call from the office stating your child has been marked UNEXCUSED for the day.
Students can be absent from school up to five times during the school year without needing a doctor's note, as long as the absence is excused (e.g., illness, family emergency). Once a student exceeds five excused absences, any additional absences will require a doctor's note. Students with 3 UNEXCUSED absences will be turned over to truancy.
