Dear HMS Parents, here is the daily update I wanted to share of classroom assignments for HMS students. Please take a moment to check in with your child to ensure they are working on the assignments listed for their respective grade levels. Your support in helping them stay on track is greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your continued partnership!
Mr. Hinkle’s senior Government class is currently working on a Mock Trial. They have prepared their prosecution and defense teams. Ms. Rookstool’s sophomore English class is serving as the jury, allowing the seniors to present their case using evidence and witness testimony.
Herington Elementary School will be having a "Blue Ribbon Tuesdays" social media campaign this fourth quarter to highlight the incredible achievement of being named a 2024 National Blue Ribbon School by the U.S. Department of Education. We are so proud of the students, staff, and community support that was able to make this accomplishment possible. A big thank you to Mrs. Knopp for putting together the video (at the link below) to kick-off our "Blue Ribbon Tuesdays" social media campaign for this final quarter of the 2024-2025 school year. Great job, Railers!

Week of March 24th - Activities at Herington Schools
HHS Speech and Drama traveled to Marion to compete on Thursday. The places are pictured below.
Overall the team took 3rd place! 🥉 🎭
Good luck to our Archery Team at their home meet today.
Henry, Ethan, and Isabelle went to the Congressional Debate National Qualifier yesterday. Competing against dozens of bright students from West KS schools, Henry received 11th Place in the House, Ethan 13th in the Senate, and Isabelle 15th in the Senate. While these places don’t qualify for the national tournament it is possible that others defer later on and they get a chance to go. Great job, we are proud of you for trying something new!

Students from the Junior and Senior classes spent some of their advisory time on Wednesday's to learn how to dance in preparation for prom. They learned the two-step and swing dance, and they were able to teach each other along the way. It was a blast for both students and teachers.
