Reusch Report
The Henderson County Schools is beginning the journey of "Building a Better Graduate." What does this mean? Well, it is our goal for students in Henderson to be life ready. Being life ready goes beyond Math, Science, English and Social Studies. To be successful we must be willing to work together and problem solve. Below are key words that HCS will focus on this year. We are currently building lessons and activities that will allow students to practice these skills.
Stay tuned!
