HES Families: We will be doing our own independent “Hoops for Herington Hearts” fundraiser beginning today through February 15th. The best thing about this fundraiser is that all proceeds will be supporting this local Herington organization and the prizes awarded to the students for working hard to raise this money. More information on the Herington Hearts organization can be found on the students’ packet or by contacting Mr. Morgan.
