This week's activities at Herington Schools. Go Railers!
Last Friday, the elementary had the first assembly of the year. Students celebrated September birthdays and Shout Outs were announced for students doing good things these past few weeks of school. Class awards were given as well. Mrs. Barnes' 4th grade were the winners of the Whole Note award given by the music teacher for good behavior in music class. Mrs. Roth's kindergarteners were the winners of the K-2 Lunch Tray Award given for good manners and following directions in the lunchroom. They also won the Big Pencil Award for good behavior in the library. Ms. Beren's 5th graders won the Big Shoe Award for sportsmanship in PE and the 3-5 Lunch Tray Award. The H.E.S. Railers are off to a great start for the 2026-27 school year!
Mrs. Roth’s Kindergarten has been busy learning about living and non-living things! On Friday, her
little scientists observed earthworms and gummy worms to decide which was living and which was not. Of course, the best part was getting to hold the earthworms and then eat the gummy worms. Science is so much more fun when you can explore AND snack!
