Message from the Principal

Community support is vital to the well-being of any school.  We are fortunate to have such a supportive community at Heritage.  Specifically, I’d like to recognize and thank two groups. First, I’d like to recognize our PTO (formerly known as PTC).  We recently had a PTO General meeting to discuss what our newly restructured PTO does to support Heritage.  During that time, our board shared how money is raised and how money is spent.  They also shared the mission of the organization.  We have a strong group of parents on our board who have great ideas!  I want to thank the many parents that were available to make the meeting and I want to encourage all of our parents to attend the next general meeting on January 31st at 5:30 pm.  Our PTO has updated their webpage with a lot of good information.  Please visit their website at http://www.heritageptc.com/.  Or you can find the link from the Heritage website under parent information.

Secondly, I’d like to recognize another group offering support to our building, our Watch D.O.G. dads.  We had a huge turn out on Tuesday with a Watch D.O.G.'s Pizza Kick-Off.   We had many dads able to sign-up for a day to spend at Heritage as a Watch D.O.G. dad.  If this is something a dad, grandfather, uncle, or close family friend would like to be a part of, please go to the Heritage website and look under parent info.  There, you will find a calendar to see what days are available, along with some general information about the program.  If you’d like to be added to our calendar, please email me your info and a day that works for you.

Mr. McFarland
