Thank you to everyone in our Railer community who attended our Parent Info/Back-To-School Night events this evening. We hope you are as excited to come to school as we are to have you there! A few MS & HS teachers will need to rest early after all the ice cream scooping they did tonight. Thanks again, and we will see you in the morning!
HES Families: We are excited for the Railers to return for the 24-25 school year! We have our Back to School Night this evening from 6:30-8:00. Feel free to “come and go” during this time frame and we will have an ice cream social outside the main HHS entrance from 7:15-8:00. Students can meet their teacher, find their locker/desk, pick-up some hand-outs, and drop off supplies. K-5 parents can check their student’s Skyward Parent Portal for transportation information (route number, stop location, pick-up time). We will also have this information available at Back to School Night. We are still working on finalizing our Little Railers Preschool Routes.
