Hendrix continues to shine and make a difference in our community and around the world by offering a variety of academic opportunities blended with community outreach projects and applications within the arts. We strive to unite people both near and far through education and outreach.
HES faculty and staff provide differentiated, student-centered instruction based on the state standards of learning in an IB environment. This approach prepares students to become active, compassionate, life-long learners and responsible world-class citizens. We seek to have local and global partnerships that make a daily impact changing perspectives to empower others and ourselves through the integration of research, service, and academic programming.
Local and global partnerships with faith-based organizations, community organizations, small businesses, corporations, schools, agencies, colleges and universities, share resources to help expand inquiry- based educational practices, global perspectives, and support amongst the community in which we serve. With our 1:1 EXCEL initiative, advancements in technology are utilized to provide differentiated, personalized instruction. This year, families enjoyed a variety of engagement opportunities like Parent Education Nights, music/dance programs, Math and Science Night, The International Cherry Blossom Festival, Chopsticks 5K Community Run, Student Fun Run, Family Fiesta, and our IB Exhibition: HES Appreciates the Planet. Partnerships with various stakeholders increased our focus on communication, collaboration, and critical thinking.
We know that Hendrix Elementary IB World School will continue to strive to be at the forefront of student leadership and academic excellence through these authentic experiences. On behalf of the entire HES family during this 50th year of excellence in education, we celebrate the past and seek to inspire the future!. We are grateful for our parental support and that of the surrounding community for their continued commitment to our school. Together we can make a difference!.
