Hennessey School News

Hennessey students and staff returned to school ready to set goals for 2024. First graders, Grace, Aubree, and Edilvio have goals of tying their shoes, reading more fluently, and making new friends. Noah, a fifth-grade student, wants to work on his self-confidence. Jolie and Kendra, both fourth graders, have goals of helping kids in need. In December they raised money for the Tomorrow Fund by creating their own service-learning project called “Bring the Holidays to the Hospital.” They sold cards to be decorated by Hennessey students and then they were delivered to the Hasbro Children’s Hospital the week of Christmas. Altogether they raised $464.11!

In February we look forward to inviting families in for our first “Invite a Loved one to Lunch" day. Our PTA also has our annual carnation sale and Sweetheart Dance. Justin and Sebastian who attend the dance every year said their favorite thing about the sweetheart dance is the conga line!

Our Heroes continue to earn positive office referrals and make us proud in recognizing all the great work they are doing! It’s always a great day when we can celebrate our heroes who work hard. In January Julian, a second grader, earned a positive office referral for showing great effort.

Heroes are looking forward to the second half of the school year!
