Back to School Edition #2
Heritage Back to School Night FAQs
 
Tonight is the big night! Before the event, we want to answer a few more questions that we've heard being asked.
  
6:00-6:30pm - PreK Parent Orientation
6:30-7pm - Open House for all grades
7:00-8:00pm - Ice Cream from Dane's Dairy in the gym
  
What exactly is Back to School Night?
It's an opportunity for parents and students to visit classrooms and teachers. It's also an opportunity for the school community to reconnect after the summer vacation. There will not be any formal presentations in the gym. Simply come and check out your child's classroom and enjoy some fellowship and Dane's Dairy soft serve ice cream.
 
Can we bring classroom supplies during the Open House portion of the evening?
Of course! You are welcome to bring classroom supplies and drop them off with your children's teachers.
    
Will there be anyone present to receive completed school forms, payment of fees, etc.?
Absolutely! During the Open House, Kathy and Lisa will be in the office to assist parents who need to finalize paperwork or payments before the start of the school year.
 
Do I need to bring anything?
Any final forms completed for the school office and your school supplies if you wish. If your child needs any medications kept in the school office, this is also a good time to bring those and fill out the forms to go with.
 
Looking forward to seeing you tonight!
Heritage Back to School Coffee - Wed, Aug. 25

Join us in the gym after dropping off the students on the first day for a time of socializing and meeting/reconnecting after the summer break!
First Day of School

The first Day of School is Wednesday, August 25 - School starts at 8:15am and ends at 3:15pm for K-8. PreK hours are 8:15am-1:30pm. Doors open at 8am each morning for drop-off. Looking forward to seeing you soon!
Men’s Bible Study

Heritage will host a Saturday morning men’s Bible study for fathers of Heritage students beginning Saturday, September 11. Steve Liu (Heritage dad and Board member) will lead the study. We will meet at 7:30 AM on Saturday mornings (early enough that it should not affect home Hawkeye games). The cost (to cover study materials) is $14.95 per person. We would love to fill a classroom full of dads on Saturday mornings to dig into God’s word and pray for each other and the school. If you are interested, please contact Steve Liu at ssliu7911@gmail.com by Thursday, August 26 so we can order materials before the first session.
Before and After School Supervisors Needed

Know a college student or perhaps a babysitter you've had that would be a good fit for our BASP Program? We need your help in filling some part time BASP Supervisor positions from 7-8am and/or 3:30-5:30pm each school day. (hourly rate starts at $12.25). Feel free to print out this flyer to share or post. If you or someone you know is interested, contact Lisa Turnbough (turnboughl@hcs-nl.com).
