ROAR! We're Back!

Dear Lion Cub Families,

On behalf of the entire staff, I'd like to extend a warm and heartfelt welcome back to HRE! We are so excited to begin this new school year and welcome your children back into our classrooms. The hallways and classrooms just aren’t the same without the energy and laughter they bring.

This year, we are especially focused on building a school community where every student feels seen, safe, and valued. We believe that when students have strong relationships with their teachers and peers, they are better prepared to learn and grow. That's why we are so committed to the Capturing Kids' Hearts. This is a special initiative that helps us create a safe and positive classroom environment where students can thrive, both socially and academically.

The principles of Capturing Kids' Hearts align with our schoolwide mission: ROAR. Our mission is simple but powerful, guiding everything we do at HRE. We believe that by embodying these values, our students will not only succeed in school but also become compassionate and capable members of our community.

Here's what it means to ROAR at our school:

• R - Respectful: We teach students to show respect for themselves, their peers, their teachers, and the entire school community. This includes listening to one another, valuing different perspectives, and taking care of our learning environment.

• O - Ownership: We empower students to take ownership of their learning and their actions. This means encouraging them to be responsible, manage their time effectively, and actively participate in their education.

• A - Academics: Our primary mission is to provide an excellent academic experience for every student. We are committed to fostering a love for learning, critical thinking, and intellectual curiosity in all subjects.

• R - Resilient: We teach students the importance of being resilient—the ability to face challenges, learn from mistakes, and bounce back stronger. We want our students to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth.

We believe Capturing Kids' Hearts and our ROAR mission work hand-in-hand. By building strong relationships and fostering a supportive atmosphere, we are helping our students become more respectful, take ownership of their education, excel academically, and develop the resilience they need to succeed in a changing world.

We know that a strong partnership between home and school is essential for student success. We are honored to be your partners on this journey and look forward to a year filled with learning, growth, and joy. Please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions or thoughts you may have.

Sincerely,

Ms. Fonville & Dr. Evans
