Ms. Ortega and Ms. Belton’s 3rd grade classes at HES celebrated the end of their Immigration Module with a celebration of their writing task. Students dressed up as their immigrant's country of origin and presented their writing to the class. They ended their celebration by sampling some food immigrants ate on their journey to America.





Ms. Fullerton’s 1st grade class at HES has excelled in writing their End of Module Task about their Power Forces Module. These students' writing skills are growing each day and so is the excitement about reading and writing.



Students may bring $2 to wear a hat to school tomorrow, Wednesday, for Read Across America week!
