Hennessey Elementary School News!

As the new school year kicked off, students at Hennessey settled back into their routines and embraced the September core value of kindness. From welcoming new classmates to helping each other in the lunchroom, kindness is evident in every corner of the school. Teachers have been incorporating kindness into daily lessons, reminding students that small acts of care can make a big difference in building a positive school community.

This month also brought the excitement of the annual Townie Pride Parade, where students, teachers, and families came together to celebrate school spirit and community pride.

As we look forward to October, the core value shifts to responsibility, and students will dive deeper into learning, taking ownership of their education and daily actions. Leading the heroes is our fifth grade safety patrol who were chosen as leaders of the school! We’ll also kick off our SOCKtober Drive for the Hope and Faith Organization, with a goal to collect as many new socks as possible to help those in need as colder weather approaches.

October will also bring one of the most anticipated events of the year—our annual Trunk or Treat, hosted by the PTA. Parents, staff, and students will decorate car trunks in fun themes, creating a safe and festive environment for trick-or-treating. Costumes, candy, and creativity will fill the school parking lot as we celebrate fall together.

It’s shaping up to be a fantastic year, full of learning, growth, and fun!
