Dear HES Families,

We are excited to invite you to our Annual Title I Meeting & Community Engagement Night on Wednesday, September 23, 2026, from 5:00–7:00 PM

This year, our focus is COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT!
We are bringing community resources directly to our families.

Representatives from local organizations will briefly share the services and opportunities they provide, and afterward, parents will have an opportunity to visit their tables, ask questions, gather information, and make connections.

Meet Our Community Partners

And this evening is for the whole family! While parents connect with our community partners, children who attend in grades 3-6 will be able to participate in a Dance & Social. Children in grades PreK-2 will be able to get their face painted.

🍽️ Dinner will be served!
🎶 Dance & Social (3rd-6th)for children & Face Painting (Prek-2)!
🤝 Meet community organizations!
📚 Learn about resources for your family!
💼 Explore educational, employment, health, and community opportunities!

We want our families to leave the evening knowing more about the resources available to support both you and your children. Strong schools are built through strong partnerships between our school, families, and community.

We hope to see you on Wednesday, September 23 from 5:00–7:00 PM!

Dear HES Families,

We have exciting news to celebrate!

Hendersonville Elementary is #1 in the district for attendance, with a 95.35% attendance rate for the September two-week average! 🥇

This achievement belongs to our entire school community, and especially to YOU—our families! Thank you for making daily attendance a priority and ensuring that your children are present, prepared, and ready to learn each day.

Why does attendance matter? Every day a child is in school provides another opportunity to:

Learn and strengthen academic skills
Build positive habits and responsibility
Develop friendships and stay connected to our school community
Grow, achieve, and reach their full potential

We recognize that illnesses and unexpected circumstances happen. However, when students are healthy and able to attend, every day truly counts!

Thank you for partnering with us and helping Hendersonville continue Advancing Toward Excellence! 💚💛

With much gratitude,
Hendersonville Elementary School

Congratulations to this week's “Tell Me Something Good” drawing winner Jennifer Tayaban of Hendersonville Elementary School.

Ms. Tayaban shared, "Starting to see my classroom become MY classroom here in HES Honey Bee Land! 🐝 In just a few weeks, routines are settling in, learning is unfolding, and meaningful relationships with my students are growing. 💛 Sometimes, the best moments are the little ones, a child finally understanding a concept, a student choosing to keep trying, or a class following routines independently. Those little moments remind me that the work is worth it. "

Congratulations to Ms. Tayaban and keep up the great work!

Did you know that as many as one in three students in the country misses 10%, or about 18 days, of the school year? This September, join with us to celebrate the Attendance Awareness Campaign. We’re working together to make sure all kids show up and participate every day possible. Being in school supports students’ social, emotional and physical well-being, and provides students with opportunities to learn and reach for their dreams. Let’s show up together and get back into the habit of daily attendance!
