Henry Happenings

Dear Families,

I hope you and your family are enjoying a wonderful summer filled with time to relax, recharge, and make special memories. As we look ahead to another exciting school year, I wanted to take a moment to share a few mid-summer updates and reminders. Thank you for being such an important part of our Henry community. I hope to see you at Mr. Spellicy's meet and greet this week!

Please expect regular communication to begin again in early August!

With Gratitude,

Dr. Jodi Oliver

This year, we're excited to partner with Spirit Wear Direct for all of our Henry spirit wear! Families can shop online anytime throughout the year, and orders will be shipped directly to your home for added convenience.

While you'll have year-round access to a wide variety of Henry gear through Spirit Wear Direct, our PTO will continue to offer exclusive, limited-time spirit wear specials a few times each year, along with select in-person purchasing opportunities.

One of the best parts of our new partnership is that Spirit Wear Direct features weekly promotions, extended sizing, and apparel options for every member of the family.

We hope you'll take a look at all the great new choices and show your Bulldog pride! You can explore the new online store here!

Summer is the best time to read! Henry Library has a summer reading program for all our Henry Readers (students in 1-5th grades for 2026-2027). A packet of information went home on Field Day! If you need more information you will be able to find it on the Henry Library Website.
