The Free & Reduce Meal application process is another pandemic challenge facing School Districts across the nation.

We are asking parents to complete the Free & Reduced Meal application for SY 20-21. Currently, School Nutrition Department (SNS) is not meeting the quota for receiving meal applications this year. During the previous school year as of 10/5/2019, SNS processed 21,776 household applications versus 8, 891 applications processed to date.

The district receives valuable funding such as Title I, E-Rate and other funding resources annually based on October 31st Free & Reduced data.  All parents must submit a new application every year to receive meal benefits. We need all parents to apply as soon as possible. Applications can be completed online at https://www.dekalbschoolsga.org/school-nutrition/fr-meal-applications/

PTA Reflections Contest

I Matter Because...

I Matter Because….

Calling all Creative Henderson Hawks!

Reflections is a nation-wide arts competition, sponsored by the PTA. It is open to ALL students and fosters creativity and self-expression. Students are encouraged to submit works inspired by this year’s theme. “I Matter Because…”, in the following categories: Dance Choreography, Film Production, Literature, Music Composition, Photography, and Visual Arts. Students may submit pieces in as many categories as they desire!

Winners are chosen based on interpretation of the theme and creativity – not solely on artistic talent. For the past several years, many of our HMES participants have advanced to both the county and state level of competition.

Entry forms and instructions are available on the Georgia PTA website: https://www.georgiapta.org/reflections/reflections-submission-info#80-rules-and-forms

or can be accessed via the attached pdf. Submissions are due: Friday, October 16th (or earlier).

Please don’t hesitate to reach out to Abby Mowinski (Reflections chair) with any questions at [email protected]. Can’t wait to see what your wonderful imaginations create this year!
