happy when I go to

DEMOGRAPHICS
WE EDUCATE, WE ENGAGE, WE EMPOWER
Heritage Elementary is a public
school and home to approximately
340 kindergarten through fourth
grade students. Located in Historic
Olde Town Pickerington, Ohio, we
are housed in the first school
building used to educate children in
Violet township. We have an
ethnically diverse population with
36% of students in need of free/
reduced lunch. We are enrolled to
our capacity and often have to be
creative with our space around the
buildings. Since our school has
housed a high school in the past, we
are fortunate to have a full-sized
gym, cafeteria and an auditorium/
stage with seating for over 530
people. These large spaces allow
teachers to go beyond the classroom
and use different environments to
creatively enhance instruction. Due
to the large geographical boundary
for our school and the lack of
sidewalks in the area, students do
not walk to and from school. Most
students are bus riders. We have
been a Leader in Me school since
2014-2015 school year, and became
a Lighthouse school this year!

“A Leader helps
people feel better.
They help people
when they have
trouble. If there is a
person left out I ask
them if they want to
join my game.”

Hallway Behavior
This is our Hallway Behavior
Chart. When we are good
leaders in the hall our grade
level earns a star.
Kindergarteners are showing
that they are GREAT hallway
leaders!
Jiji and ST Math
The ST Math board helps us
track each class’s progress
towards completing our ST
Math curriculum. We are trying
to get Jiji home to Antartica.
The sunshine was made to
brighten our spirits and our
days. The message reminds us
to be proactive and that we are
in control of our mood.
Our Bus Behavior board helps
us to remember that great
Leadership happens outside of
school too! Each time a bus
has 5 days of great behavior,
they move a mile down the
road. At the end of 9 miles, the
students earn extra recess!
Readers Are Leaders
Readers are Leaders is a quiet
spot for students in all grades
to sit in and read.
It is a great way for us to take
time and Sharpen Our Saws!
Our different scoreboards in
the school keep kids focused
on our goals. This Math
Fluency Scoreboard allows
students to move up the
stairwell as they pass their
tests.
