Effective Immediately -The federal regulation requiring all students and staff to wear a mask on school buses and school vehicles has COME TO AN END. The only mask requirement that remains is associated with an individual returning to school after being a close contact to a positive Covid case in the home or for someone that personally had a positive Covid case.
The Henning School is excited to share that Mrs. Jorgenson, one of our 2nd grade teachers, has written and published two children's books. She is currently working on writing a third book with the students in her classroom. The students are learning about the writing process and how to create and solve problems in literature. We can't wait to see what they come up with!
