As we begin this year, it seems as if everything has changed. Our goal and mission remains the same: “We are here to be Learners, to be Leaders, and to Leave a Legacy." In the changing times that we live in, this seems to be even more important for our students. Using the Leader In Me process in our day-to-day routines, we put our students in leadership roles, create opportunities for each other and pave a path for our future as well as theirs. One thing that will forever remain constant is change. We want to prepare our students to be able to persevere through that change. These ideals are made possible due to our amazing families, supportive and caring staff, and our wonderful students. I have always loved that Heritage Elementary feels like a family that is a part of a larger community. We have our staff, students and community to thank for that feeling and perception. Thank you for all that you are able to do for your students and, together, I know we will continue to develop our students into future leaders of tomorrow.
