Welcome back to school! See what came our way during the first quarter of the 2020-21 school year. Even though we are virtual, we keep buzzing away in the hive and doing our very best!

Staff Appreciation May 4-8, 2020. Students sent messages to their teachers and staff from home during the COVID-19 global pandemic which were put into a video for the entire HES staff. Thank you so much from the bottom of our hearts.

Follow our Herndon Elementary weekly “Portrait of a Graduate and Positivity Project” video series! Herndon specialists take turns creating engaging new video lessons through the lens of introducing Portrait of a Graduate skills and attributes to Herndon students.

HES art teacher, Ms. McDonald, inspired us to create messages, photograph them, and send them to her to create a video. She is so creative and did an amazing job! We miss you Bees!

HES Virtual Spirit week continued March 31-April 3 with Board Game Day, Pajama Day, Thankful Thursday, and Feeling Good Friday!

Herndon Elementary School Virtual Spirit Week began Monday, March 30, 2020 with Herndon Elementary Spirit Day!
