Herington Schools would like to thank all Veterans for their service to this great country today for Veterans Day.
The High School Student Council created a unique opportunity for the high school students this morning. Instead of having a normal assembly where students get talked at, students were able to be talked with by Veterans.
There were 11 veterans who were set up at tables. Students were free to move around the gym to learn about our community veterans and their lives.
Students gave very high compliments on the event being very personal and most wished there was more time. The veterans were pleased with how respectful the students were when listening.
This was a great opportunity for students to connect with community members and to learn communication skills. STUCO would like to thank all Veterans who came out today. They will be doing something like this again next year because of the success of this year!
Attention Senior Parents: senior yearbook ads are due next week. Forms were sent home with the students however, there are extra in the office if needed. All information is also in the pictures below.

October Middle School Student of the Month
The middle school staff members chose 7th grader, Mason Mortensen, as the October Student of the Month. Mason participates in band, football, basketball, track, baseball, and swim team. Mason believes that he was chosen as the student of the month because even though he is a quiet student in class, he works hard to help others and gets his work done. Mason also feels that he is respectful to his teachers and coaches.
Mason is the son of Amy and Jeff Mortensen.
October Student High School Student of the Month
Sarah Biehler is the daughter of Donalyn and Troy Biehler.
Sarah thinks that she was selected because of her hard work, and the drive to stay involved. She always does her best to set a good example for people around her, and stay focused on the goals she sets for herself.
As a Junior, Sarah has been involved in FCCLA, FBLA, NHS, STUCO, Cheer, Drama Club, and is currently her class secretary.
When asked, Mrs. Gonzolas said, “I feel Sarah is a great pick for Student of the Month because of her successes in and out of the classroom. In my class she is always a leader the other students can rely on for assistance. Out of the classroom, Sarah involves herself in many organizations showing her desire to be active in school and in the community."
Congratulations, Sarah! You deserve this honor.
