Coming Events

Re-Enrollment for 2018-2019
Kindergarten-Seventh grade families received a re-enrollment packet in the mail. Please be on the look out for an envelope from American Heritage Charter Schools. Completed packets are due to the front office by Thursday February 15th, 2018 .
7th Grade Parents:
We sent home permission slips for Medieval Times this week. They are due back no later than Feb 2nd . The cost is $45 and checks can be made out to Heritage K-8 Charter School.
Highly Recommended Family Fun for Enriching the Astronomy Unit: Sometime before school ends in May PLEASE consider treating your family to the Palomar College Planetarium family show on Friday nights. Get a group of friends together and go as a fun night out. It only costs $4.00 and it will be the highlight of this unit of study and something your kids will never forget! Shows change every 2 weeks, so you can go more than once if you like! Shows are appropriate for all ages 5 & up.
Bon us for Grades 1-4: If you go, please create a page or two in your science notebook about it. You can then pick 2 weeks of demonstrations to skip.

For show information and to purchase advance tickets please visit:  https://www2.palomar.edu/pages/planetarium/public-shows/
We need your help!
If you have any spare larger "river rocks" between 3-7 inches in diameter you can you please consider bringing them in for our students to paint for our growing garden. We appreciate your help making our garden a success!
Dollar-A-Day Fundraising Drive 
The Dollar-A-Day Club is an ongoing fundraiser that supports anything that HFA may need.  While we
continue to rely on our Average Daily Attendance (ADA) funding to maintain our HIGH quality educational programs, as a charter school, we receive less funding than other public schools. Therefore, in order to provide the 'extras' we must rely on your continued, generous support. For more details about this great ongoing fundraiser, please feel free to pick up a flyer from the front office. 
 
You may bring your donations (checks made out to AHEF), of any amount, to the front office at any time or mail your donation using the Dollar-A-Day envelops located in the front office. Every dollar helps and we appreciate every bit of support!

Exploration Monday

Session 2: January 29; February 5, 12, 26; March 5


Absences:  If your student needs to miss a Monday class for any reason please call or email the front office or email the teacher directly. If a student misses 2 consecutive classes without communication with the school, they will be dropped from the class and their seat will be given to a student on the waiting list.

Dress Code:  All students wear the   Heritage Flex Dress Code   on Monday and  PE Dress Code  if your student has dance or a sports class.

Parent Volunteers:  While volunteering at Heritage Flex is never mandatory, we love and appreciate any help parents can offer. Please contact Amber in the front office if you are interested in volunteering. 

Supervision:  There is limited playground staff supervision on Mondays. Parents are advised to stay with their student if they are on campus and do not have a class, are waiting for a sibling, or have a break between classes. Junior High students may stay for a break between classes with prior permission from the administration, and they should bring a lunch and schoolwork to work on. 

If your student is enrolled in Art, History Through Art, or Cooking you may pay the donation fee by going to www.heritageflex.org/Parent Zone/Exploration Monday, or click HERE to go to our website . We are asking for a $10 donation fee per student, per class to help pay for food and supplies, but we welcome any additional amount you can give. Acceptable Payment Methods: PayPal, cash, or check. Checks should be made out to Heritage K8 with "Heritage Flex ExploMo Fee" in the memo.
