Erin Cundiff reigned supreme with 63 necklaces...Lombardi has nothing on her trophy...so if your kids are talking about their silly teachers tonight...they might just be right!

Last week, fourth-grade students presented multi media projects on various severe weather and natural disaster topics with second-grade classes, who have also been studying about weather, as a culminating activity of their unit of study on informational writing.
❤❤❤ Hip Hip Hooray! Our Tomahawks are having so much fun celebrating 100 days!! ❤❤❤ Be sure to ask your student what they did to celebrate 100 days today! Here are a few fun photos. Who knew there are so many old folks around the 'Burg?
Students in 3rd and 4th grades submitted drawings for our district banner project. This is an annual program sponsored in part by our Lancaster County Council for the Arts, local steel artist Bob Doster and The Lancaster County School District.
5 of our students had work selected, then recreated in black marker on a 6 foot banner.
Students went on the field trip Friday to paint the drawn banners.
These banners will be hung from the light posts that line main street in down town lancaster, beginning in March. They will hang there for 9 months.
Make sure you go check them out!!
🦷Our friend Ms. Johnnie from Laxer, Long and Savage has been at the 'Burg this week teaching our Kindergarten and 1st graders all about dental health and how to properly brush and floss their teeth! The kids also learned all about what foods are good for their teeth and which are bad ones. Ask your kindergartener or 1st grader about it today!🦷
We had a fabulous turnout and a WONDERFUL time at International Night this evening!! Hundreds of people came to learn about the very diverse culture in our wonderful school and we truly enjoyed the evening! Thank you to those of you that brought delicious food, wore beautiful clothing, and shared precious family artifacts with us! We are so lucky to get to have so many fantastic experiences at HES!!
