Hola HHE Familia!
We are in our last quarter of the school year and are working hard to finish strong. You can continue to support your child in meeting their goals by talking to them about the importance of doing their best, taking their time, and showing what they know on upcoming assessments. Thank you for your support and we look forward to seeing you at our upcoming events!
Love,
