Join us for a festive evening of creativity and fun!
Check out the Henning FFA Grain Drive!
This morning our students and bus drivers went over bus safety!
Students and staff learned how to properly enter and exit the bus, important rules, how to safely ride the bus, where and how to use the exit windows, and how to exit the back of the bus.
Now that our students and staff are refreshed on important bus safety issues, we also want to remind drivers to please be alert and watch for school buses and students on the roads, especially during the early morning and after school hours. We want to remind drivers that when a bus is stopped, has its flashers and stop arm out that means STOP! This is not a warning to drive slowly around the bus...it means STOP!
We strive to keep our students and staff as safe as possible and we need you to do the same.

Please join us for a community work day on July 31st at 6:00 pm to help revitalize the Henning's baseball and softball fields. These fields, essential for our youth and community sports programs, have become unsafe due to holes, dead grass, and unstable fencing. By participating, you'll support 48 school athletes, 84 summer recreation participants, 24 Little League players, and 96 adult league members. This project, made possible through generous donations and grants, including a crucial $40,000 Minnesota Department of Education Innovation in Service Learning grant which is contingent on student and youth involvement. Community participation (both students and adults) is vital for completing the renovation and ensuring our fields are safe and vibrant for years to come while empowering students with real-world learning opportunities. We hope to see you at the baseball fields!
