Yesterday 8/18/2025, Students received their key to their individual lock box where their cell phone and other data devices will be stored throughout the school day as per the adopted new cell phone policy. If a student wanted a lanyard or key chain to help keep track of their key, and did not receive one yesterday, there has been many ordered that will come in a few weeks. Again if you need to get a hold of your child during the day please contact the office.

We can't wait to see everyone! 🍎

Wondering "Why Henry?" Let's hear from the Scott Family. "The staff and teachers at Henry are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and truly care about the kids and their families. Mrs. Nerison went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable and informed throughout the year. She consistently communicated what was happening in the classroom and shared tons of wonderful pictures that helped us feel connected to Maren's day-to-day experience. What really stood out was the extra effort she made to support Maren's speech development. Mrs. Nerison shared helpful learning materials, tips, and tricks that made a noticeable difference-- Maren's speech improved so much thanks to her guidance and encouragement. Every day at drop-off and pick-up, we were greeted by name and with a warm smile. It's clear that this is more than just a school-- it's a community. We absolutely love Henry and can't wait for year two!"

The cheerleaders are selling Falcon Blankets for the next two weeks. They’ll be in around the second week of August. Two options for blankets and two sizes 50x60 - $25 60x70 - $30 Reach out to a Falcon cheerleader or you can message Rebecca to order!

Wondering "Why Henry?" Let's ask the Sigurdson family! "A few reasons we chose Henry: - So close to our home! - Teachers that go above and beyond, always caring as if it were their own children - 4-day school weeks give us extra family time - Other parents are always so willing to connect and get to know each other in order to create more opportunities and memories for our children together In the last two years, we have been displaced from our home twice due to weather events. Both times, teachers, parents, and students came through for our girls, showing them unbelievable kindness and support during very trying times. We have the utmost respect and gratitude for our school! Thank you so very much to each and every one of you from the bottom of our hearts!" Thank you, Sigurdson family, for choosing Henry & sharing your wonderful girls with us!

Mother Nature may have canceled Field Day, but Mrs. LeBlanc and Mrs. Fox made sure the fun didn’t stop! The kids had an awesome afternoon filled with glow bowling, tissue paper painting, and bingo. A big thank you to these amazing teachers for turning a rainy day into a memorable one!

Come check out Dorothy's Roadtrip on May 14th at 2pm and 7pm in the Henry School Gym.
