At Heritage Elementary, we are committed to not only educating our students but also helping them build confidence and independence. These skills begin the moment they walk through our doors each morning! We kindly ask that parents allow their children to walk to class on their own and carry their own belongings, including backpacks and snow gear. If your child has a large or heavy item they cannot manage, please stop by the office for assistance. Thank you for partnering with us to help your child grow and thrive!
