Outside Drinks<\/h2>\n

Students are no longer permitted to have outside drinks in class (i.e., Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, etc.). If students arrive to school with these, they will be asked to throw them away. Thank you for supporting us with this so we can limit distractions and minimize messes.<\/p>\n

8th Graders!<\/h2>\n

As we get ready to finish up the 2025-2026 school year and prepare for the transition to high school, East Henderson would like to share important communication with parents and students to help make the transition as smooth as possible. One way they do that is by having an easy line of communication directly to students and parents through the TeamReach app<\/a>. The Class of 2030 and their families are invited to join our TeamReach<\/a> group using the following Join Code: East2030<\/p>\n

This TeamReach will share important updates for the remainder of this school year as well as throughout your student’s high school career. Please make sure you join as soon as possible so you don’t miss out.<\/p>\n
