Dear Heritage Families,
Next week will be a short week due to Thanksgiving Break. Students will be in school on Monday the 24th and Tuesday the 25th. We will then welcome everyone back on Monday, December 1st.
On behalf of all the staff at Heritage, we hope you enjoy some quality family time and take a moment to simply enjoy the day.
Thank you for your continued support in helping us foster a positive, engaging, and enriching environment for all students.
ONE TEAM. SAME COMMITMENT.
Take care,

Congratulations to our November Student of the Month winners! Heritage is so proud of all of you, keep up the good work! |
If you plan to come visit during lunchtime, please let the office know by 9:00am if you are going to purchase a school lunch so we can prepare enough food. Lunches are $4.90 for adults, and no change can be given.
You are more than welcome to bring food from home, but please NO fast food. If you are bringing a peanut or tree nut item in your lunch, please do NOT sit at our peanut free table in the cafeteria. Thank you!

Bennington Public Schools has updated our procedures for volunteers working with students. We truly value the time and talents our parents and caregivers share with our school community! If you plan to volunteer at school this year-whether in the classroom, at events, or on a field trip-please take a moment to review the new procedures. If you would like to volunteer, simply complete this application form, sign it, and return it to the school office.
If you have filled out a form in the past and have already been approved, you're all set.-no need to complete it again. If you're not sure of your status or have any questions, our office staff is happy to help. Just give the office a call at 402-238-2095.
