HMS Wrestling @ Home (8th Grade Recognition)


HMS Wrestling - Council Grove Junior High Tournament @ Council Grove


Congratulations to our HHS Wrestlers!! Herington has had four wrestlers place to move onto State next weekend. Three regional champs Benson, Colson and Cameron and Justin has also qualified for state with a 4th place finish. The team placed third overall and missed second by 1/2 point. Awesome job Railer Wrestlers and Coaches!!!


The HES January student of the month is Braxton Pigorsch – 5th Grade Student in Mrs. Beames’ Class. Braxton is our student of the month because she is respectful, responsible and safe throughout the school day. When Braxton is absent she makes sure to get all her missing assignments completed. She asks for help when she needs it and she is willing to help others as well. Braxton is one of the few kids in our class who has met her AR goal for the first two quarters. Braxton is respectful to others and takes responsibility for her actions. She is a well-rounded student. She is fun and funny. She is caring and shows concern for how others feel around her. We really enjoy having Braxton in our school and look forward to the rest of the year with her. Braxton is the daughter of Casey Jarvis.
