Show your support for all of our athletes by joining the Booster Club today!

The teachers at The Heritage School understand that these are difficult economic times.  While they are always grateful for your gifts at Christmas and the end of the year, they certainly do not expect them. You are welcome to express a token of your appreciation this holiday season but please know that you are under no obligation to do so. The teachers are grateful for your commitment to the School.

To enhance the fourth graders' study of matter, Ms. Gina Watkiss' CHAOS (Chemistry and Other Sciences) class invited the fourth graders to make "Oobleck" with them. "Oobleck" has characteristics of both a solid and a liquid, so it graphically illustrated two states of matter as the students explored some of its properties. Both groups of students benefited from their science interactions as the Upper School students shared their knowledge with their Lower School partners.

The Campus Store is now open every Monday from 8:00 - 8:30 am and from 2:45 - 3:30 pm. Please stop by before or after carpool to check out our new merchandise, including a very popular, sherpa-lined, zippered logo sweatshirt.

Kindergarten student, K. Rineer, cuts out shapes to use on a Thanksgiving card.

Monday will be a full school day.  Tuesday, students will follow an abbreviated schedule and be dismissed at noon. 

Remember to pick up your Thanksgiving Q items from noon until 3:00 pm in the Student Life Center on Tuesday.

Other than the Thanksgiving Q pickup, School will be closed from noon, Tuesday, through the rest of the week. Classes will resume Monday morning.

Have a happy Thanksgiving!

In a joint project between the Early Learning Center and the Key Club, Heritage packaged and delivered nearly 100 gift boxes for Operation Christmas Child.

This is an annual project between the two groups at Heritage. Each ELC student is asked to bring in items to that will fit in a shoe box, based on examples of items needed. Once all of the items are collected, the students divide them into gifts for boys, girls, or either. Next, the students help pack the boxes with a balance of items like toys, school supplies, and toiletries. 

This project offers a great lesson for the ELC students to not only see how little some children get for Christmas, but also to use their critical thinking skills to decide what to put in the boxes that will give the recipients a variety of items. The Upper School Key Club students work with the younger boys and girls to pack the boxes and help teach them about Community Service.

Operation Christmas Child is the largest Christmas project in the world.  The boxes go to children in more than 100 countries.

The Lower School collected 260 boxes of cornbread and two jars of applesauce for the Food Pantry in October!  Pictured here are fourth grade students, H. Hatch, L. Clark, and P. Knight. 

This month we will be collecting canned vegetables to add to the donations to Can-A-Thon.  Please bring in your canned vegetables by Tuesday, November 22, for the Lower School assembly that morning.  Thank you!
