The decision has been made to cancel the 2020 Prom that was scheduled for June 27 at Thumper Pond. The decision took into account:
- Maintaining consistency with school expectations regarding social distancing, group size meetings and overall healthy practices to protect our students and staff.
- Limitations that Thumper Pond has regarding the number of patrons allowed in the areas used for Prom & Post Prom.
- Student survey data regarding not wanting to reschedule (again) after June 27.
We understand this decision will be upsetting to some of our students and families. Please know that we made this decision in the overall best interest of our student and staff at this time.

Families please take a minute today to complete the summer food survey. We are trying to evaluate if we have enough families interested to participate. https://forms.gle/1gykuSWUjX9KNGaa9

Henning Public School is considering extending our FREE breakfast and lunch program from Tuesday, May 26th to Wednesday, July 1st. Meals would need to be curbside pick-up 3-days a week at the school.
The state of Minnesota has not come to a final decision about summer recreation programs, the school is not sure if our usual Summer Recreation programs will resume this June, or if those programs will be delayed for a week or more. Regardless of this outcome, we would like to measure the interest in continuing our free breakfast and lunch program to members of the community that are 18 years of age or under.
This summer meal program would begin on Tuesday, May 26th, and go until Wednesday, July 1st. Because meals would no longer be delivered to your home, meals would need to be picked up at the Henning Public School. The pick-up window would be 1 hour in length and would occur on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, except for the first week, where the pick-up days would be Tuesday, May 26th, and Thursday, May 28th.
Please complete the survey questions below so we can better gauge the interests and continue to serve the Henning Public School Community.
