Elementary school registration for the 2023-24 school year is open and online now for current students. Registration is required annually and is the time to update your child’s information and pay fees. Completing registration confirms that your child will attend school in August. Thank you for providing important information as part of the registration process. After logging into ParentVue, click "Online Registration" at the top right. Make sure you select the 2023-24 school year.

Registration is your way of letting us know your child will attend Heartland Elementary for the 2023-24 school year. Without a completed registration, we are unable to “count” your child in our enrollment numbers. Enrollment numbers determine how many sections/teachers we will have for each grade level. The sooner we receive your registration, the better.

If you know your family is moving and your child will not attend Heartland Elementary for the 2023-24 school year, please call 913-239-6300 or email heartlandelementary@bluevallyk12.org and let us know.

Thank you for helping us have accurate enrollment numbers.

Every weekend, Metro Lutheran Ministry gives away sack lunches to people who drop in needing food to get them through the day. On average, they distribute over 750 lunches each month in Kansas City!

For their community service project on Friday, April 28, the Heartland 5th graders will be packing sack lunches for this program. We would appreciate the Heartland community's help in collecting the food items needed for these lunches. Our goal is 200 lunches. Any additional items will be donated directly to MLM. Click here to sign up.

On the sign up, please indicate the number of individual items you are donating so we have an accurate count for complete lunch sacks.

Donations can be placed in the designated bin in the front hallway at Heartland through Wednesday, April 26.

Thanks in advance for supporting this program and helping the 5th grade class give back!

Thank you to all families who donated to Heartland Library’s Birthday Book Club. Your donation helps to library to purchase new library books for all students to read and enjoy. Not familiar with our program? Read below for more information.

Students at Heartland have a wonderful way to have their special day recognized for years to come. Our library’s Birthday Book Club is available to students in all grades. By donating $15 to the Library Media Center, your child will be able to choose a special book to be placed in our library collection and be the first student to read the new book.

Here’s how it works. Prior to your child’s birthday, he/she can come to the library and select a Birthday Book from our cart of brand new books in all different genres. A nameplate will be placed in the front of the book and your child’s picture will be taken and displayed with the book in the library. This program is optional but it does provide our library with exciting new titles throughout the school year. The average cost of a library bound book is $17.30!

You can make your donation anytime during the year by paying through this Heartland link: https://bvpo.bluevalleyk12.org or send in a check made payable to Heartland Elementary to the front office.

Daily Snacks: Thank you for your support of our nut-safer snack plan at HRT. As a reminder: we ask that ALL daily snacks (i.e. snack time) for ALL students must come from the nut-safer food list as we have a significant number of students with life-threatening nut allergies. (click below for the link) If a student’s snack is not from this approved list, it will be sent home (and an alternate snack will be provided the first time) so we can help increase the safety for our students as a whole. Our continued focus this year, as an entire school, is to remain consistent on the daily snacks for student snack time in the classrooms—following the nut-safer list.

Please click HERE to access the Nut-Safer food list.

Heartland Elementary’s policy for birthday treats prohibits students and parents from bringing birthdays treats from home—edible or non-edible. This is due to several factors including health, safety, and the preservation of instructional time. Birthdays are a special time for each child and as such, the school will provide recognition throughout the day and throughout the school through announcements, birthday book club from the library, classroom celebration routines, and more. If birthday treats are sent to school during the 2022-23 school year, they will not be distributed and will be sent home. Also, if you send it invitations to birthday parties, please include all students in the class, or they will not be distributed. Thank you for understanding and complying to this policy.
