Book Donations for Preschool – Library Checkout & Hour of Code
If you are doing any cleaning lately and notice that you have a lot of board books or books that you are wanting to get rid of please think of donating them to HRE for our preschool program. Students are currently checking out library books and are keeping them at school and I’d love to turn your donations into books that they can take home and enjoy. Thank you for your consideration!

Volunteers and Lunch Visitors
Hoosier Road Elementary always has many opportunities for parents to become involved. Whether it’s through volunteering in the classroom or a PTO event, attending classroom activities or even eating lunch with your child, you must have a valid background check on file and view the anti-bullying training on-line. Background checks are valid for three years. Please allow up to 6 business days for checks to be completed. Please follow this link for complete directions: http://www.hse.k12.in.us/ADM/parents/volunteering.aspx
We want you to be able to interact with our students but we also need to adhere to strict safety guidelines set forth by our school district. Look for an email from Safe Visitor Solutions which will issue a bar code unique to you. Please bring that bar code (on your phone or on paper) on your first visit to HRE so we may take your photo! Thank you for your compliance and for helping to keep all of our students safe.
