For five years, Hannah and Isabelle committed to early mornings in the weight room before school — showing dedication, discipline, and hard work to become stronger athletes. Proud of the commitment they made and the results that came from it! Thank you Coach Warta for dedicating the time to supervise the morning weights. Great Job Girls!!!

Fifth graders had to research a historical figure and write a paper about that person including their early life, their career, and their legacy. Students then were able to choose how to present their information. Some got creative with their costumes!

☀️🚂 RAILER NATION SUMMER IS HERE 🚂☀️

The 2026 Herington Railers Summer Schedule has officially arrived! From weights and conditioning to camps, leagues, practices, and tournaments… our athletes are about to have a summer packed with hard work, growth, sweat, and plenty of Railer pride. 💪🧡

Parents & students:
📌 Save this schedule
📌 Screenshot it
📌 Hang it on the fridge
📌 Send it to that teammate who “didn’t see the post” 😅

This summer is where progress gets built brick by brick before the lights come on in the fall. Let’s show up, work hard, support each other, and make Summer 2026 one to remember!

Yesterday, the H.E.S. 5th grade was recognized for their completion of elementary school. The 5th grade band played a few songs, the students sang some songs, and they received their certificates of completion. The PTO held a reception afterwards for students and their parents. Students each had a cupcake with their face on it and each received a t-shirt showing that they are the graduating class of 2033. Great job 5th grade!!
