Reading comprehension is a skill that follows children throughout their entire lives. Decoding and understanding text happens everywhere, even in our digital world. Help your child improve his/her comprehension and reading fluency.
Glow crazy at the Junior High Neon Night Dodgeball Tournament and Dance Party on Friday, August 26. Sign-up a team of 6-8 or come cheer on your favorite players. Tickets are $5. The winning team will receive a year of free Dress Down Wednesdays. This event is for 6th-8th grades only.
Words are the building blocks of communication. Comprehension vastly improves when a reader knows the meaning of the words on the page; and the main goal of reading is comprehension. For all students, English natives and ESL, a strong vocabulary benefits learning activities: reading, speaking, and listening. It boils down to the fact that the more words a child knows, the better their comprehension can become.
Join us for a special night of family fun with all proceeds contributing towards Heritage’s effort to go green with solar panels.
Transitioning into middle school is a big change for students and parents. It requires more adept time management skills, independent responsibility, and a tougher course load. However, with the right tips, students can develop lifelong skills to help them succeed in all future academic endeavors. We have developed a list of beneficial habits to help your child transition and flourish in the upper grade levels.
To celebrate the start of a new school year, Heritage invites all students to attend our Back-to-School bash on August 26, from 6-8 p.m.
Goal setting not only helps children achieve personal goals and milestones, it can be an effective tool in encouraging and securing academic success for your child.
Every year families need to reapply for the free- and reduced-lunch program. These applications can benefit you and your family by determining the eligibility of your child(ren) to receive their lunches for free or at a reduced rate. They benefit the school, because Title I federal funding is determined based on the information reported on these forms. Completing these forms benefit all involved—lower costs for you and your family, and funding for the school that supports special programs and enrichment for students.
On July 22, from 5-7 p.m., we’re asking all students and parents to join us for our Meet the Teacher Night. You’ll be able to see the campus and classrooms, meet classmates and other families, as well as your child’s teacher. In addition, important information you’ll need for the start of the school year will be provided that night. See you there.
