Hedding Grade School

The district is reporting a new COVID outbreak (verified by our local health department) in 3rd grade. Hedding will remain in-session. Please monitor your student(s) for symptoms.

Due to Staff Shortage at AAHS, the High School will NOT be in-person today. ALL other schools will be open. Information on today’s remote student work will come from school leaders later this morning. This ONLY applies to AAHS. All other buildings are open today 1/11/22

First day of PreK in the new classrooms.

Attention all Hedding Pre-K parents. We would like to welcome you to walk your student into the new addition to see the new classrooms when you drop your child off for their first day back to school. Pre-K parents may pick up or drop off in the half-circle drive. Please do not block the drive for other parents to drive through. Again, if you are dropping your Pre-K child off later than 8:10 a.m., you should enter through the main doors and check in at the office. Someone will then walk your child to their classroom.

As there is no school today due to hazardous road conditions, PK at Hedding will resume on Friday, January 7.

No school today due to poor visability and drifting snow on our bus routes.

I have never been so proud of a group of kids. Your students worked so hard to put this concert together. These last 3 weeks have been a whirlwind of spirit days, classroom work, practice, and recording. The students never complained. Thank you to the parents that recorded their students at home. Thank you to the students that came in to make up recordings and record introductions for me. It has been a joy to be your student's music teacher. I am truly blessed. See you all in January!!
