Today was an another fabulous day at Hedding! 4th grade went to the YMCA to learn about swimming safety. Kindergarten went to the Niabi Zoo and Life Skills went to the park for Field Day with Knox Warren. 1B went outside to read and enjoy the weather!










Mrs. Howe's 6-8 grade math students were challenged to show growth on the end of the year Star test, and they showed up! These students grew a combined total of 533 points this year, so Mrs. Howe rewarded them by allowing them to trade their growth points for temporary tattoos. She is covered in tattoos and the kids joined in on the fun too!



Congratulations to A-Town's retirees and Excellence in Education winners!



Today in Mrs. Darst's class a tragic accident happened with Hobble the chick. She hurt her foot and Nurse Mindy made her a cast!
