Hearne Elementary's Playbook
Summer 2018
One Team, One Goal!
Greetings Hearne Family!
I hope you are having a relaxing summer vacation and are getting rejuvenated for an outstanding 2018-2019 school year. Together, we will continue our journey to becoming an exceptional place of learning for our students and families, while growing as professionals and educational superheroes!
Our theme this school year will build upon last year's focus--It's not the team with the best players that win. It's the players with the best team that wins! To accomplish this goal we have to be One Team with One Goal: Success! We will work strategically to impact the lives of every student, every day.
As we prepare for the start of another great school year as TEAM HEARNE, take a moment to review the information below. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions, comments, or ideas you would like to share.
Let's go, Team! We are going to the TOP!
Never forget:
You make a difference!
You matter!
Our students need you!
