Four HES students earned the opportunity to throw pies in the faces of four current and former staff members on Friday. The students had the chance because they raised the most money in a recent fundraiser for Herington Hearts. HES students raised a total of $3,700 for the organization. #backontrack.





HES Students: Tomorrow will be the last day of basketball camp! We are so proud of all of the hard work and hustle you’ve put in this far! See you just before 10am!

Middle School art students created beautiful masks for the Little Railers preschoolers to wear at their end of year program. Little Railers brought the big kids special gift baskets to thank them for their hard work.

Mr. Hirsch believes Avery was chosen for student of the month because “Helen Keller once said, “Never bend your head. Always hold it high.
