HES first grade students in Mrs. Hett’s class read different versions of the Stone Soup folktale! The folktale’s message is about sharing and community: that you can do more together than you can separately - which is perfect for Thanksgiving! The students helped make their own Stone Soup and did different Stone Soup themed activities throughout the day!

Last week Mrs. Biehler, Dr. Morgan, and Mrs. Mortensen traveled to Washington D.C. to accept the 2024 National Blue Ribbon School award on behalf of Herington Elementary School and USD487. It was a great experience and we are so proud of the hard work and efforts made by all of the Railer students, staff, families, and stakeholders to make this type of achievement possible. Way to go, Railers, and keep up the great work!
Several parts of the 2024 National Blue Ribbon School conference have been uploaded in video form at the following link. If you would like to specifically view the award presentation to HES and the other KS Schools start around the 2:52:45 mark.
