Today, Professors from the Theatre Department at Emporia State University visited Mr. Hirsch’s theatre class to talk about their program.

This week at Herington Schools


The HES September student of the month is Carly Miller – 5th grade student in Mr. Wichman’s Class. Carly has been chosen as student of the month for many reasons. She has done a great job of getting work done correctly in class. Her work is also turned in on a timely manner. She participates in class discussions very well, and volunteers to answer questions about the lesson frequently. Carly’s behavior has been very good, and she continues to show leadership qualities in regards to Rail Way expectations. Carly is the daughter of Erica Miller and A.J. Cogdill.
