HES kindergarten students helped out our wonderful City of Herington staff members and commissioners plant a tree on the northeast side of campus recently in honor of Arbor Day. It will be fun to watch this tree and this group of students continue to grow over the next dozen years. We are very fortunate to have strong partnerships with all of the supportive and generous public entities in Herington!





HES fifth grade students did an outstanding job with the wax museum last week! #backontrack





Little Railers Preschool students enjoyed learning about bees and beekeeping from Mrs. Rucker! #backontrack



HES third grade students learned a lot and had a terrific time on their field trip to the Milford Nature Center! #backontrack





Congratulations to the HES April student of the month, Damian King, third grade student in Mrs. Gutsch's class. Damian is an experienced Railer who knows the Rail Way expectations quite well. He has grown and matured so much this year and as a result, has become a positive example for others. He has also improved his outlook for learning and is working hard and trying every day! Damian is a great reader in class, in MTSS, and in AR. Due to his dedication to AR reading, he has achieved his goal early for the first time this year. He is a very caring person who is great to have as a friend. He is very kind, friendly and helpful to others and often seen assisting a friend with tasks. Mrs. Gutsch’s favorite thing about Damian is his kindness and good manners. We are lucky to have him in our school and on the G-Team! Damian is the son of Jeremy King and Mandy Eyerman.
