School will start on Thursday, August 8th at 8:00am. To assist families with school shopping, grade level school supply list requests and the dress code are posted here on our website under the “Students” tab. Please remember that supplies are “requested”, not mandatory, and students have a couple of days of school before they will need to have them. Back To School Night will be August 7th from 4:30pm to 6:30pm. We are working on a more efficient and confidential way to inform parents of class/teacher assignments, so watch for more information to come.
Our VIPA partners are gearing up for the year by providing a free Pizza dinner to all of our families at Back to School Night! Ohana Smoothies will be there for purchase of beverages and proceeds will support VIPA! VIPA will also have a table for membership and for purchasing student disaster preparedness packs. See the flyers with QR codes below. Here are the physical links if you want to use them instead of the QR codes:
Finally, I am excited to announce the Grand Opening of “The Nest” which is our counseling and student center located behind preschool room #3. Our counselors, Mrs. Caldwell and Mrs. Gazca, will be in The Nest at Back to School Night, so please stop by, say hello, and check out this amazing space for our students!
It is my goal to keep the entire Heritage Community as informed as possible throughout the year through emails, monthly newsletters, phone calls, this website and our facebook page. Please stay tuned and be assured that more information about the start of school, new staff members, VIPA events, and drop off/pick up procedures will be coming soon. We look forward to seeing you all at Back to School Night!
In partnership,
