The following post explains the two education questions on the November 3rd ballot.

📚✨ PBS Learning Express has arrived at Henning!
We are so grateful to have the PBS Learning Express mobile trailer visiting our school—completely free of charge! This hands-on learning experience gives our students another fun and engaging way to explore, create, and learn.
Our 2nd graders had the opportunity to visit the trailer during their social studies block, where they explored puzzles of the United States and the world, practiced group problem-solving skills, and got creative with colorful tile blocks. 🧩🌎
The PBS Learning Express trailer was an awesome addition to their day!
A big THANK YOU to PBS for bringing this wonderful learning opportunity to our students!

Henning School is proud to offer a unique opportunity to all of our 6th-grade students through Firearm Safety Certification during the school day—completely free of charge to students and families!
Throughout the program, students work with instructors Mr. Hart, Mr. Oscarson, and Mr. Aeling to complete the classroom portion of Minnesota’s Firearm Safety program. Students learn about firearm safety, responsible handling, hunting ethics, wildlife conservation, and the importance of making safe and responsible decisions.
After completing the classroom instruction, students are partnered with other local certified instructors to participate in the required field day, where they demonstrate the knowledge and skills they have learned and complete their final assessment.
This is an opportunity we are especially proud to provide, as Henning is one of very few schools offering Firearm Safety education to its students as part of the school experience and at no cost to families. By working together with local instructors and community members, we are able to give every 6th-grade student access to valuable safety education and the opportunity to earn their Firearm Safety Certification.

🚌 Bus Safety!
Today, our students and bus drivers took time to review and practice important bus safety procedures to help keep everyone safe throughout the school year!
Students and staff practiced:
• Properly entering and exiting the bus
• Following important bus safety rules
• Riding safely and responsibly
• Using emergency exit windows
• Safely exiting from the back of the bus.
Keeping our students safe is a team effort, and our community plays an important role too. As you travel throughout the school year, please remember to stay alert for school buses and students—especially before and after school.
When a school bus has its stop arm extended and red lights flashing, motorists MUST stop and remain stopped until it is safe to proceed.
Thank you to our students, staff, bus drivers, families, and community members for doing your part to help keep our students safe!
