Grandparents Day is next Friday, April 21. It's a day we set aside to honor grandparents and share a day-in-the-life of a Heritage student with them. If your child doesn't have a grandparent close by or they cannot attend, feel free to invite someone else as an "adopted" grandparent. This will be a half day with school dismissing at 11:40 am.
