Santa pictures will be tomorrow and Wednesday. PK-2nd grade will have their pictures made tomorrow and 3rd-5th on Wednesday. If you want your children to have the picture made together, please indicate that on your order form or message the teacher and be specific about which day. Thank you!

On Tuesday, HPES First Grade hosted their first annual Charlie Brown Thanksgiving feast! The kids had a great time learning about Thanksgiving traditions and how to set a table, and they loved sharing Thanksgiving with their friends/classroom family!

Our awesome cafeteria staff does an amazing job everyday. On Nov. 16, HPES parents joined the students for Thanksgiving lunch. Mrs. Blevins said they served 739 people, and on a normal day they feed 300. They are truly Rock Stars everyday, but they really shined yesterday.

Don’t forget!!!
This Saturday Night!!!!


Be sure to join the John Battle Baseball Community this weekend for the Designer Purse BINGO! See posters for details.

Good afternoon,
We were all heartbroken when we learned that Cameron Craig had lost his life in the line of duty as a local Firefighter. The services to honor his sacrifice will occur on Wednesday afternoon and the procession will have a tremendous impact on traffic in our community. In order to honor Cameron's ultimate sacrifice and to ensure that our buses and car traffic do not interfere with the procession, all Washington County Public Schools will dismiss 2 hours early on Wednesday, October 25. Childcare will be available at all middle and elementary schools for working families who need that service. Each school will provide individual details prior to Wednesday.
Thank you for your understanding. We know you join us in loving, supporting, and praying for everyone involved.
Thank you,
Keith Perrigan, Ed.D.
Superintendent
Washington County Public Schools
