Play it Safe this Summer

Summertime is here! This means days of play, entertainment and good BBQ.

All things fun put aside, remember there are obstacles that come with summer that can be avoided. Here are some tips to make your break away from school carefree and joyous.

Lunch Applications are Available

Reduced-cost lunch program applications are now available in the school office. Anyone can apply to be considered for the reduced-cost lunch program.

The front office is open Monday through Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Feel free to stop by and fill out an application for the reduced lunch program.

As a friendly reminder to parents, please be aware that lunch or lunch money will need to be provided until the application is approved. If you applied last year, a new application needs to be filled out this year.

Summer is Almost Here!

April 25: Early Registration Day for Summer Camp

May 20: Last Day for Students

Spring is in full swing and believe it or not, the end of the school year is right around the corner! If you’re wondering how to keep your child busy, active, and free from summertime brain drain over the summer, one simple solution is the Heritage Elementary School Summer Camp.

Spread the Word about Heritage (and Enrollathon)!

As everyone knows, our big enrollathon/carnival event is March 20th. The flyer asked you to invite someone to come see what Heritage has to offer. This raises an interesting principle that private schools have known for a long time: current families are important marketers of the school. This applies to charter schools, too because families choose us.

Plant a Garden and Watch the Learning Grow

You’ve probably heard the buzz around campus about our greenhouse project. On March 20, we will officially unveil the Tyre Butler Memorial Greenhouse, dedicated to one of our students who will be forever remembered fondly. The greenhouse will be used for educational (and fun!) hands-on projects that will help our students learn science and math principles and valuable life skills.

A Good Time to Set Goals for the New Year

Sometimes New Year resolutions seem silly. People don’t keep them and then make jokes about not being able to stick to their resolve.

But one of the things we teach our students at Heritage is the importance of setting goals and then taking the steps necessary to meet them. That is essentially what a resolution is: a goal for a brand new year.
