April 2022
You are invited to the Hutto ISD 21-22 District Art Show!
The event will be April 23rd at the Hutto Ninth Grade Center from 2-5 pm. Please come out to support our students and their passion and talents for art! This year's t-shirt theme is based on work by the street artist, Banksy and is available for purchase here.
HES students who have artwork in the district show will be notified by Ms. Stanton next week. It is a huge honor to have art selected for the show!
Art Club students designed and painted hippos to welcome everyone to HES!
TECH Corner
Happy spring from Tech! Our HES students will be busy learning about innovations and famous innovators in Tech. Kinder through 2nd graders are focusing on reading a variety of versions of popular Fairy Tales, then are helping the characters from the story with inventions. For example, could we make something that Rapunzel could use to escape her tower? Or just how strong would a bridge need to be in order to support the biggest Billy Goat Gruff? Here is an outer space castle that a 2nd grader designed for Interstellar Cinderella.
3rd - 5th graders are learning about innovations and famous innovators as well. They have been learning about George Washington Carver and his work with farmers and peanut product uses. They have also been creating their own BrainPop videos about him. We will move on soon to use Tinkercad, a software that will allow us to design and print 3-D products.
We are also so very proud of Brooklyn, one of our amazing 5th graders for becoming HES' first ever typing champion in our March Madness bracket. Way to go Brooklyn!
