HES Pre-K Registration
School plays a vital role in a child’s life and preschool is usually the first experience with school. In preschool, your child will learn about the world around them through play and hands-on experiences. Your child's development will be enhanced through interactive experiences with other children in which they learn how to get along, build confidence, and build a sense of self. Strong preschool experiences will help your child develop a positive attitude about school and so much more! Your child will develop a love for learning that will start them off on their lifelong journey of education!

Talented & Gifted
Gifted students are those who perform or who have demonstrated the potential to perform at high levels in academic or creative fields when compared with others of their age, experience, or environment. These children and youth require services not ordinarily provided by the regular school program. Children and youth possessing these abilities can be found in all populations, across all economic strata, and in all areas of human endeavor.
