The mission of Ann K. Heiman Elementary School is to provide a safe learning environment where all students grow in knowledge, skills, and character to reach their optimal level of achievement.

The Ann K. Heiman School Vision

Ann K. Heiman is a place where every member learns, is valued, and feels respected.

Learning that is challenging, valued, collaborative, engaging, and acquiring skills and tools to learn.

All learners getting what they need at the right time.

Standards based teaching that is purposeful, flexible, innovative, research based, and data driven.

Recognizing, embracing, and honoring diversity.

Developing social skills that foster respect, responsibility, relationships, self efficacy, and accountability.

Creating a climate that is welcoming, safe, positive, and inclusive.

Communication

We value talking with all of our parents! Feedback is very important, both positive and negative. We work to prevent problems, but also to solve issues as they arise. If we are not in the office when you call, leave a message and we will return your call within 24 hours. Talking and working together is the best way for us to solve our problems.

Additionally, a Monday Message will be sent each week via phone and email. Please make sure that your information is current and accurate in Infinite Campus so that you can be up to date with important events and information.

Classroom Celebrattions & Birthday Parties

Heiman is a place where everyone learns, is valued and feels respected. In order to make sure students feel special and we maintain a learning environment we have these expectations in place.

Every student will receive a birthday book from our PTO, these are given out each Friday for students who had birthdays that week. June birthdays will get books at the end of the year and July birthdays will get books in August.
Birthday celebrations will take place at the end of the day on Fridays, at or after 2:20 PM.
Families who wish to send in treats for a Friday birthday celebration, they will need to let the classroom teacher know.
Treats should be delivered to the office and stay in the office until the time of the celebration.

Please support the District 6 School Wellness Policy (Policy ADF) when considering goodies for parties. We highly encourage non-food treats. The District 6 Policy encourages healthy alternatives to food with high sugar and high fat content. Home baked products cannot be accepted. Additionally we have many children with peanut allergies, avoid these when possible.
