HES: Headed for Success
Believe it or not, more than half of the school year is already behind us. We are working hard to get students ready for all of the challenges that they face this semester. With school and home working together, all of our children have a better chance for success.
If your child is struggling, make sure that they are present daily and on time to get the help that they need. We offer afternoon tutoring for those students in Grades 3-5. If you have questions, make sure you contact your child’s teacher. We can be reached @ 972-218-1512.

Houston Students Reach Milestone
Based on the book Miss Malarkey Leaves No Reader Behind, the year
of 1, 000 Summaries has been an awesome way to motivate our students to read, and assist them in understanding the elements of an effective summary, all while incorporating writing.
The Challenge: If the students of Houston Elementary School read and provided summaries for a total of 1,000 books, I would dye my hair purple.
So, THEY DID IT!! I anticipated them completing this by May, maybe. Leave it to HES students to exceed my expectations. As you can see, my students completed their goal of 1000 summaries this month. So, as requested by the students of HES, I actually dyed my hair purple and incorporated some faux locks. Thanks to Ms. R. Perkins and Ms. Govan for the inspiration and to the students of HES for their hard work.
