The Herington Elementary School August student of the month is Maelie Houseman – fourth grade student in Mrs. Barnes’s class. Maelie knows how to follow our Railway expectations in the classroom, hallway, restroom, café, and on the playground. She has really improved as a student because she works hard, listens to her teachers, and always does her personal best. Maelie has a positive attitude and treats all of her classmates respectfully and kindly. We know Maelie is going to continue to be leader this year in fourth grade. Maelie is the daughter of Michael and Monika Houseman.
The HES staff wants to say a huge THANK YOU to our local Family Resource Exchange and Teacher Support Group for gifting us some teaching resources and inspiration/appreciation items!
HES students and staff had their first “data day rotations” for this year. During these rotations, kindergarten practiced names using daubers, first grade made rockets, second grade made rainbow clouds, and third through fifth grades made spinners!

Miranda Shaffer is the daughter of Elizabeth Patterson.
Miranda believes she was chosen because “I am respectful, honest and helpful.”
Miranda is a senior at Herington, who involves herself in: Forensics, Drama and Cheer.
Mr. Hirsch believes Miranda got student of the month because “she is one of the most reliable students I know. She may be quiet, but she has a moral compass that guides her through life. She also has been putting herself out there this last year more. She took my theatre/forensics class and thrived! She even went to a forensics tournament where she performed her prose speech in front of an audience and judge! No one would have believed that, but she pushed herself and performed incredibly. She has a voice, and it is kind, generous, and caring. I am so excited to see where life takes Miranda as she continues to grow and find out who she is.”
Congratulations, Miranda!

Sophia Weber, who’s a junior, attended her very first board meeting as the 2A KSHSAA Student Advisory Team female representative. She had a blast at the KSHSAA building in Topeka working with members from all different sizes of schools. She was able to collaborate and bring ideas and information back to Herington.
Herington High School is grateful for her willingness to be active and represent both the school and community in a positive light.
