News and Announcements
As we prepare to wrap up the school year let me be the first to say thank you for an amazing year. I am so lucky to be the principal at Heartland. This is my home and I enjoy meeting with you, celebrating your students, and working together to make sure all students achieve great things. I have attached the schedule for the last week of school and other May events. Please let me know if you have any questions.

June 6th Dance Festival and Family Picnic
All grades (K-6) and all students have been working on a dance performance to share with you. All families are invited. We will be outside on the East Field. The dance starts at 11:00 am sharp. Please bring your own lawn chairs, blankets, etc. This will be a very fun activity to finish up the school year. Immediately following the dance festival we invite you to stay and enjoy a school-wide picnic. Heartland will serve chicken sandwiches, and chips for all families free of charge. Students lunches will be as usual through the cafeteria lunch program but will be served outside so you can picnic together. You are welcome to bring your own picnic food as well. If you wish to take your students home at any time before 12:30, you must still check them out. We will have check out areas by the 2nd and 4th grade doors. You must show your ID to check out students. Otherwise, all students will be released at 12:30. Lunch and breakfast will be served today.
