Dear Herricks School District Community,

I hope this message finds you well and that you all had an enjoyable holiday weekend. I’m excited to report that our first day of school here in Herricks has been incredibly successful and productive. Our students returned with enthusiasm, and our faculty and staff were thrilled to welcome them back, setting a positive tone for the 2024-2025 school year.

While summer is always a cherished time, there’s something uniquely inspiring about the first day of school. It’s a day brimming with possibilities and opportunities, laying the foundation for the journey ahead. To share a bit of the excitement and energy from today, we’ve prepared our first Herricks’ Happenings Video update for you!
